Just For a Day

Just for a day
She won’t think
of you
And the fish will forget
Their way about water
The sun will be suspended
Burning helpless in the orbit
The umbilical chord will coil
and strangle
Time’s own neck

Just for a day
She, oblivious
will place her lamp
between the sun and the moon
And the seven sages in the sky
Will get worried
Letters will fly away
Falling off the scripts
Creatures will forget their faces
And no mirrors will be there

Just for a day
You will go
Into an ethereal mist
For a moment
And darkness will befall
The whole of universe
Lava will gather
In the guts of earth
For miles
snails will burn
inside their shells

In just a day’s
oblivion
her body will turn blue
from its own bite
