Inside this shell
everything I have lived convenes:
dates, lovers, orgies,
fist fights, drinking parties,
and many curses
I don't know what I'll relive.
If I'll ever get drunk again, or if
guilt-ridden, I will eat
another animal.
I only know other beings in me
insist I gather every one
so I may say to them
Greetings, friends,
Sad companions on the bus,
Announcements of weddings
Without couples,
Lodge in my house,
Take the best rooms,
Wear my clothes.
You are my eternal guests.
