by Paul Colinet
Translation: Michael Kasper

The bird is in the suitcase, the suitcase, in the egg, the egg, in the rock, the rock, in the pinky finger, the pinky finger, in the moon, the moon, in the gun-dog, the gun-dog, in the steam-ship, the steam-ship, in the forest, the forest, in the powder box, the powder box, in the band, the band, in the setting, the setting, in the desert island, the desert island, in the blotter, the blotter, in the empty head, the empty head, in the night.
