The poetic penguin coffee (1.11)
My companions drove me mad
with compasses, theodolites, sextants
and telescopes that magnified objects —
it was better they kept their distance.
On these streets, where do we go?
Even that day that began
has perhaps not yet faded away,
with that fire in an abyss like a rose
with that sea suspended beneath God's feet.
