I saw you being swallowed Your tiny black head turned up towards me. And you saw me "free" Against the yellow backdrop of our world. Both waiting and waiting, for the inevitable dirt-filled end.

The dog
-on his painting of the dog It's such a strange place here, we're always ready to go. But when we think of leaving, it seems we just don't know. Did someone tell us to linger? Was it death that asked us to wait for its eager return? This sulky sullen guard, this safe and sorry heart will steadily keep on beating until the night's black start. Did someone tell us to pray? Was it life itself perhaps that came to us and went away?
