SPARROW

web | Black book of the Endangered Species

The sun is dark yellow.
The willow leaves
are mirrors, ringing
above the lit up waters.

Mute people with shadowed faces
ask why.

The sun is swelling
and reddening in the west.
It becomes a space-ship.
Millions of sparrows
disembark.
They shout at me
that the planet is ending
and I am to blame.
