Fata Morgana

I will receive holy communion made of sea water
drop by drop collected off of your body
into an ancient, Algerian, copper grail
which was used by pirates for the communion before the battle
 
- Where have you come from?
- From Babylon
- Where are you heading to?
- To the cyclone's eye.
- Whom do you love?
- A gypsy woman.
- What's her name?
- Fata Morgana
 
Leather cloth, covered in wax
a smell of cedar wood, of incense and lacker
like the smell of an old ship's hold
built in the older years of the Euphrates in Phenice.

Fire colored rust in the galleries of Sinai
The cellars of Gerakini and of Stratoni
The glaze. The sacred rust which gives birth to us,
feeds us, gets fed from us and kills us.

And you crazy woman keep on torturing me

Look at me, behind tires and wheels
placed steadily in a press
look at me, behind wings made of glass
attached firmly to my body only because you liked it
 
And you crazy woman keep on torturing me
embittering me from dawn to dusk
you look like a witch's daughter
whose face is shapeshifting in the darkness
 
Look at me, have been following the trails for 16 hours
being born and dying on the steering wheel
look at me, 16 hours is too much time to pass by
in the unbreathable murderous air
