FULL MOON ON TOP OF A CHAMPAGNE PALM'S TIP

do not hide ugliness
do not hide in the ugliness of ugliness,

adopt to it, and be there, and then see it well,
there is a way to rearrange its place

it is a matter of how we understand and put all of these
ugly pieces again, this one here, and that one there,

until, you begin to see what you really want to see,
and it elates you later, to see how you, in an ugly beginning

can change the world, or even just your place, into
a work of art, something beautiful and redeeming of us,

for that is the role of art, to change this place,
to put the pillows and blankets and comforters back

to their places, the first thing to do in the morning,
after a sleepless night. There must be order.

And propriety. And duty. And respect.
Then you can wash your face and do some other things

After.
