Five Deaths
– Black Out Poetry
I
Water, water,
or outer space-
Does any evidence exist
I
Water, water,
or outer space-
Does any evidence exist
of the improbable,
fantastic
sky?
A small passage through
space
Water, water-
ice, and frost,
and rain.
II
A thousand years
quickly,
hundreds of millions
eyes, tongues, mouths,
and death.
III
The universe is
a house, a sword,
a human body,
a castle-
organized,
impossible
nonsense.
The universe
is a clock,
200,000 nuclear explosions every second.

The mysterious:
fire.
The priest:
water.
Forever
a stranger.

Different blood
all the days of
blood and healing;
Beginning
human
infection, contamination
flushed through the drains.
Toxic poisons
deadly odors
typhoid, dysentery, cholera,
people.
