Sudden Swamp


I am afraid I have forgotten you.

The days are full of youth.
A white breeze seizes my window,
through baby-sunshine.

There are no sandy days
the yesterdays are mint-green,
such honey and milk over your sacred fingers.


Surefooted I was a martyr,
properly and well to do,
with eleven sailors
throughout the Seas
(whether at peace or war)


I thought I was there, when I wasn't.
Therein (laying underneath dried leaves)

Across the cliffs
and at the very heart of the bone of the whale.
A voice said:

"Welcome to Ursula's Swamp,
where the todays are mint green
behind a night that beholds doom."


I thought this disease was over,
but the disaster was just beginning to turn white.


I don't want to talk about
the disease that spreads in the air,
not today in SUBTERRANEAN coughs,
between jokes that manage to
bring back
the
memories
that
I
thought
had
fallen
of
The Tree of Agnes.

The view from here is Blurry.
the Swamp quickly turns yellow as I manage to wade
between ooze of darkness.
black oil, slow and doomed.

Like ourselves,
when love is a harvest destined to be
a bad omen
and a black foreshadow
for this farm
for the sons of the sons,
the suns of the suns
that belong to
a vain promise
carried from a voice
to another,
3.000 years in advance.

There, I am hugging air,
despite a lack of field.

Vincent's Prayer




I believe in myself,
behind the white Night
and dark clouds.

I'm just there, hanging between
the ripe soil
and the sickening soul
of fearful ones.

The rain falls
disgustingly.
I will see better days climbing the summer fence.
Content in variegated dreams.

Oswald, the tide is cruel amongst us,
but I can see (from here)
that we are already winners.
