Daily Dose

From Monologue of a Dog, by Wislawa Szymborska

FACTS

"I'm still asleep,
but meanwhile facts are taking place.
The window turns gray,
the room works its way from hazy space,
pale, shaky stripes seek its support."

From Early Hour, translated from the Polish by Clare Cavanagh and Stanislaw Baranczak
