Elegy

10-05-2013


Like a vinyl record
Gilels playing October piece for Tchaikovsky
To reach perfection
Yet with a man's voice in the hall coughing.

Having fun with her big round belly
Reciting a sentimental story
About her child that hasn’t been born yet.

With his elegant mustache
Walking with a snobbery smile
After being stripped from everything he wears.

When their time has come,
The animals lie down on their side
And close their eyes.
