an excerpt from requiem for non-creation
from hospital windows
sick people
people sick
watching
red flowers bloom on green trees
counting
distant grey slabs of life
listening
for bus sounds, car horns
alone, alone
seeing rain fall
through holes in roofs
saying
maybe no one lives there
this evening her lover comes
he carries no red flowers
