You sit at the edge of the world,
I am in a crater that's no more.

Little fish rain from the sky.
Outside the window there are soldiers,
steeling themselves to die.

Thinking for the pendulum that moves the world, it seems.
When your heart is closed,
The shadow of the unmoving Sphinx,
Becomes a knife that pierces your dreams.

Search for the entrance stone, and more.
Lifting the hem of her azure dress,
She gazes
at Kafka on the shore — Haruki Murakami
