Inside my animal-part
a house
drifted on atomic beats.
The kiss of death, a floating
country pulses on dying light
of stars, laughing children who
still dream
on my tongue, small tones
in organic mosaic,
the sound of ancient water.
The modifications goes on,
once morbid, now mobsters
of honor, pregnant of God.
