Of bricks... Who built it? Like some crazy balloon
When love leans on us
Its nights... The velvety pavement sticks to our feet.
The dead puppies turn us back on love.
Where we are. Sometimes
The brick arches led to a room like a bubble, that broke when you
entered it
And sometimes to a fallen leaf.
We got crazy with emotion, showing how much we knew
The Arabs took us. We knew
The dead horses. We were discovering coffee,
How it is to be drunk hot, with bare feet
In Canada. And the immortal music of Chopin
Which we had been discovering for several months
Since we were fourteen years old. And coffee grounds,
And the wonder of hands, and the wonder of the day
When the child discovers her first dead hand.
Do you know it? Hasn't she
Observed you too? Haven't you been observed to her?
My, haven't the flowers been? Is the evil
In't? What window? What did you say there?
Heh? Eh? Our youth is dead.
From the minute we discover it with eyes closed
Advancing into mountain light
Ouch... You will never have that young boy,
That boy with the monocle
Could have been your father
He is pa**ing by. No, that other one,
Upstairs. He is the one who wanted to see you.
He is dead. Green and yellow handkerchiefs cover him.
Perhaps he will never rot, I see
That my clothes are dry. I will go.
The naked girl crosses the street.
Blue hampers... Explosions,
Ice... The ridiculous
Vases of porphyry. All that our youth
Can't use, that it was created for.
It's true we have not avoided our destiny
By weeding out the old people.
Our faces have filled with smoke. We escape
Down the cloud ladder, but the problem has not been solved.
