Ghosts
Outside in the cold, we always lose something,
he said, perhaps what would be surely lost someday
what existed, didn’t.

create, he says, one convincing, certain image of
the inexistent, that is worthy of the pain and history
at the time when the old woman hits your window
with her nail and inevitably calls you inside again.
