"THE DRONE (Palindrome-by-Pairs)

A drone,
lost,
lay,
as by
a last,
lone
road."

"An Imaginary City

I entered it in one of my travels
A silent city
No trace of the living
Doors shut
The wind playing in its squares
But its window lights
Were on all night
Who switches them on?
I saw roses in the gardens
Their necks tilted
A children’s playground
In ruins
I knocked at doors
I called out
Have they all died?
Did they depart?
What magic spell turned them into invisible beings?

Suddenly I saw the shadow of a woman
on a marble platform
fidgeting slowly
trying to wake up
I said: 'Eve,
do you know who I am?
Adam'
But she didn’t understand the language"
