The Powerless.
Sensing the burden of life’s
futility as cheap cigar smoke
in a windowless room, mother
Teresa came, sat by my bedside
and skinned a bunny rabbit alive.
”The fur is for your lumbago,”
she said.
The rabbit hid in my left armpit,
I was now responsible for
a totally defenceless life,
veins on its furless forehead
pulsated fearfully as I gently
caressed the bunny with its own
fleece and mimed a lullaby
