  Simon Perchik  
   
 
     
     
All night tightening, rolled smooth
And now these chimes
As if the rain this minute stopped
What did they see that my cheeks
As if there were set prices, these shadows
I tighten a gift for you
This tree who works as hard
With each step and practice
A book or a coat on a seat
At night you can tell the stones
You bark as if a knock
