COMPLETION OF A CARGO STEAMER
The calm of her eyes was disturbed like the waters of a jury but her recovered sight finally prevailed and flew to the transluscence of her vaulted dream as a fly flies from the nose of a sleeping child to the whirl of a glimmering silence. Then the assembled law observers decided to do away with silence once and for all and raise at the very spot a statue of the calm of her eyes because the young woman held in her hands her recovered sight like a miraculous snake.

SUCKLING OF MARES
Starting off in a circle the gun’s morsels arrived even earlier than the stroke of light. A young lady stood up in the dark and was at once replaced by another young lady who offered nuptial coaching in correlative flashes of twenty-thousandfold centuries. But the demand of lilies was not met because the gardener’s slap exposed the snow-white skin of the new day and animated the glow of her immaculate breast word for word and almost diagonally.

LIGHT ON A WHALE
The initial form of woman was the interweaving of two dinosaur necks. Times changed after that and woman too changed shape. She became much smaller more fluid more adjusted to the two-masted (in some countries three-masted) ships that sail above the misfortunes of life’s struggles. Woman herself floats on the scales of a cylinder-carrying dove of long trajectory. Times change and in our time woman resembles the chasm of a fuse.

TIME
She bared her breast like a fan and bowed at a time when the legends of the darkest towns arise. There was just a rattle of teeth and the present vanished forever. In its old footprints stood something of something else. The night swept away the remaining branches and the root of the tree was strewn with ashes.
