PARADOX
The stone mason's tink like an insistent bird
distinct against the grey wash of traffic.
.
To begin the whole
complex business again.
.
Killed the cat,
but nonetheless
Killed the cat
scared a rat
ate the hat
ground the bat.
.
You will lose a finger
but it won't be yours
you will have a baby
with many toes.
The
earthquake
will split the ground you
have nothing to do with.
.
Takes it in his hand and
drops it upwards.
Leaves a shadow.
