I feel it is necessary to explain the title of this collection, taken from a song by Tom Waits: Alice.
 
As a group of chickens is called a peep, a group of ducks a paddling, a convocation of eagles,  a murmuration of starlings, a wisdom of owls and  a group of crows is called a murder of crows.
My title, therefore, refers to a group of dark shadows: a murder of silhouettes.

The Self - beheaded
I imagined my death this morning: In a car crash or by a bullet. I felt sorry for myself. I cried over my corpse for a while. Soon after I started talking of cows, of the government, of how expensive life is nowadays, And I felt better, a little bit good. I meant to tell you that I am really ill. As if without skin, hurt by the air around, wounded by the sun, by words, by dreams. An annoying devil has climbed on the back of my head and doesn't leve me alone. Ulcerous, rotten, I have to live crawling, on all fours, slowly, any way I can. [Jaime Sabines (1926-1999)]

The Storm
.... hallucinations that emerge when a notion is transformed entirely into images, showing a thought in its pre-conceptual, not yet comprehended state, before the synthesis sets in;... are they dreams, daydreams, reveries? Illusions, conceits, visions? These apparitions are said to be delusional, and yet they constitute the base, the abyss of every thought, every feeling. Marion Poschmann The pine Islands
