IN EMPPTY HOUSE

in empty House

in the House empty a man grim,
plays piano village Wolves and chopim;
without Nexus and complex enchants softly,
in his ingenuity imitating chaplim.

in home empty man grim,
decorating the stars and tries to touch them,
as a distance black a bird night,
rehearsing a Waltz reminds me Alam Poe.

in home empty silence dusty,
rests on the shelf with discs and verses,
in a corner, absorbed is Jorge beloved,
and the man tired if in reverse.

man inhibited by reminds Dear,
rum in the head already ready to announce;
and empty House eternal and naked, makes dreams come to no longer leave.

in a room dark you look Woody Allen,
smile deleted and look sleeper,
the man upset is very addition,
head drugged already ready to sleep.
