Dear Silence, p.4

Are you in league with the wind? How far must the ostrich run to escape extinction? Was it necessary for Marduk to slay Tiamat with an excess of air in order to invent guilt? Will the resurfaced ship dislodge the echoes of her drowned? What color of cat would you take for your own? How do the strands of your hair establish the precise and legitimate minute of their descent? When did remembering ever stop you?

Dear Silence, p.3

Will enough dandruff lend themselves to a sculpture of your nape? Would you rather choose between Osiris and Seth or keep them both? Does the moon have a full voice? Why be vice president? Do you drape the underwindows of your nest with webs or would you rather keep a crystal view of the soil? Since more amphibians than birds are killed by the day, will the frog seek refinement? Why won't you cross the road?

Among the perfume drops, which would you lend to the gutter? How much debt is necessary to make the world go round? How could you forget exactly - or exactly forget - the face of the mountain?

Which is the ant that lost its way?

Dear Silence, p.1

What will persuade the petals of Dona Aurora to look up? How does the coccoon contrive the butterfly? How ardently do you challenge your zit?

Where is the flying fish who prefers the wrong side of the water?
