MIMIKOS by LUIGI FONTANELLA

First Line: THERE ARE EXACT ARRANGEMENTS

There are exact arrangements
like that of the first glance
that correspond to the cut of the breakers and
the boat goes all to pieces the soft slag
splashed in the sky: I as witness
with my palms spread open
on the aquarium glass.
