the streets were paved with broken glass,
but the buildings were made of sea-foam,
hyacinth and peacock feathers.
But shy and bleeding, she inquired about me
among those streets but had to learn to speak rudimentary peacock.
Seeming liquid green nepenthe,
nouns and broken glass constrained her.
But mostly verbs were not a problem
because there is but one in peacock
(and it can’t be conjugated).
Said verb is transitive but said,
by simply, keeping, surprisingly, quiet.
