Parabolic Inoculation

.
.

At a ripping pace in

trot and backstroke enamoured

maids with glints in their eyes black holes

in their eyes that suck in buttons

seams fabric coins and Russian

steel-teeth Bulgarian china-

gums nobody sinks to the

bottom in boiling

water nobody

soars

to the clouds when it’s raining

golf balls but rather lets oneself

sink into shelter pulls

together celestial bodies and

counts the krónas

one has counts

the crowns

one has

shoves

unread

bills into the grates

of storm drains so everything clogs up

and when the slobber of skies

floods over

windowsills the glints

of eyes go out

the black holes

go out

and the girls suck

the blood out of the moon like the juice

of an orange.
