VERBS

Silent verbs surround me
Verbs similar to alien heads,
Hungry verbs, naked verbs,
Main verbs, deaf verbs.
Verbs without nouns, verbs are simple.
Verbs that live in basements,
They speak in the cellars, are born in the cellars,
Under several floors of general optimism.
Every morning they go to work,
The solution gets in the way and the stones are dragged
But building a city, they’re not building a city,
And monuments are erected to their loneliness.
And they leave, as they leave in someone else's memory,
Stepping from word to word
With all three of my times
Verbs once ascend to Calvary.
And the sky above them is like a bird over a graveyard
And as if standing in front of a locked door,
Someone knocks, hammering nails
In the past
            at present
                        in the future tense.
No one will come and take off
The hammering will become an eternal rhythm
The earth’s hyperbole lies above them,
How the sky of metaphors floats above us!
