Le feu?
Où
est-ce le feu
dans vos ventre tristes
vos fronts fulmineux où
l’orage ne jamais plus semble passer
ils nous ont menti tu me dis
maintnant tu
te tais

Passion
all consuming fulfilling
emptying same time
hurts so much
Rain drops
drenching
ecstasy
fire

Without wanting?
Passion without wanting.
Not possible!
So completely liberating.
Are you sure?
Defocused.
You are joking!
All extending and it feels so good.
You are kidding yourself!

I’m curious
I’m curious
I observe
all that we do
or not do
thoughts and dreams
I mirror them
through
thought sculpture
astonished
I observe
for I’m curious

Recherches
un vieux aristocrat me disait
Elles ne pensaient pas,
en ce temps là.

‘I took me a filipina wife’
watch out
when
one of those days
she
will come to wonder
why
you introduce her
to your friends as
‘my filipina girl’
and walk
straight out of
your house
in disgust
