fissuring

Between two high notesThe song gives a crackLong enoughTo allow me to enterLike a fish jumping backInto the night water

Both the fish and I leave noTrace behind us, and the worldRemains undisturbed as we swimDeeper and deeper in blue silence

Upon my return, I find the musicStill going on, while the fish hasDisappeared into the unknown

 

 

pomegranate

As long as you have ample bloodFilling in your cells, your heartWill never fadeWithin your fine structure

A rosy inner being:Each sarcotesta is inflatedWith juicy passion

you have a dream

You will be sad to depart from us tomorrowAt an antlike moment in the smallest spaceWhere you will become used to singing aloudWith a throat wider than your belly, the song

Of a frog with only one tone and one pitchA song about your dream flowing with leechesIn a ricefield. Yes, you will have a loud dream!You will dream of humans who will no longer

Try to catch you, skin you off, barbecue youOr eat you alive as they do with their ownSpecies; you will dream of jumpingAs high as summer stars, and as rapid

As winter winds. You will dream ofEquality, equilibrium and equanimityYes, thank his Song, thank
