Listening, especially at dawn, to birds, seductive facts, we listen to their songs
as to the song of brains.
We wake and dream wanting a great accumulation of adventures, as complex a though
as possible and all there, if only for a minute, nothing but passage.
What things know no one knows, what we were we don't remember, nothing stops, clarification
is constant and ubiquitous even if things are unclear and occasions don't endure.
