Inconsistencies
The presence of witnesses – he says – always unbearable The same
with the lack of witnesses One of them hangs from the lamp
The second bites his shoe The ugly woman
walks with her head on the floor Down in the street
the produce sellers yell From the seventh floor
they throw bottles in the light shaft “Myrcine Myrcine”
“Myrcine” someone called And suddenly it turned dark
At the intersection the tall traffic controller raised his right arm
under the lights The traffic stopped At that point
the hearse carrying the dead woman turned back toward the house
