last poem for Nadia


      
               after Neruda
        
come and see
come and see 

no blood in 
the poem

clapping 
and ovation 

                    soaring ballerine

once again 
old aesthetics
curls up

bones transparent 
in moonlight
drowned in
frescos

Debussy being played
over
Syria or Palestine
for clarity 

come and see 
come and see

no blood 

they’re 
empty mussels resounding in
Auschwitz
i’ve long forgotten
