all the hairs are lined up
by their lengths
to be split—
and the domino columns
are counted
which are all to be ruined
in midair.
In rooms
and in streets, then,
the real progress begins;
one by one,
the synonyms are deployed—
replacing each EVERY
with one lonely ONLY.
The way forward,
once enacted, cannot be
destroyed. Evening
after evening, aren't you
exhausted?
