Feeling

There was something going on in your body.
First you complained about tooth pain.
Then your stomach ached.
Another day it was hard to breathe, you said.
And not so long time ago, your bile was
hard like a stone.

Something similar to a black cloud was
moving around through your organism,
affecting different parts, like a djinn that
tried to get out of a bottle, pushing left and right,
moving up and down.

Then, when summer came, there was
silence in your body.
The crosswords in your head
were replaced by consolations of nature,
of what was visible again.
