Zywa
Blue pale green yellow pink and red
Old self-knowledge, the old fear
of blood loss, watch out
for predators
and dream of vampires
dream of witches
who drink the blood
of the unborn
who drink the blood
of their mothers
the sweet blood
which also nourishes mosquito eggs
the blood that gives life
to all animals, a body
is a trunk full of blood
blue pale green yellow pink and red
to catch or for sale at farms
breeding stations and speciality stores
the leeches with caeca
at the pharmacy, without a prescription
oh, ticks will wait a year
five years if it's only then that you come
