I have nothing more to ask of myself
What beginnings I had
I have devoured them all
I am empty
I am full
Everyday I rise at dawn I put on my name
And paint a big fire on the wall
And pretend the house is burning
The firemen all dead
The house burns all day
It will go on til night breaks
I live in the heat
Never burned
Never charred
A stiff cluster of pasts
Goes on clinging like molds all over me
Disrobe me no future wind will dare
I am dressed
I am not going anywhere
I have nothing more to ask of myself
What beginnings I had
I have devoured them all
I am empty
I am full
