Analysis of the stars become the embryos of nobody's parents
Sviatoslav Hurhura 1991 (Ukraine)
the stars become the embryos of nobody's parents
the stars froze like a snail that learned to levitate
the dead ripen in the poppy heads
they crawl into grandmothers' mouths -
listen to what the old people say
there are more germs in the sky
constellations become mutants
