Unfulfilled

Taboo
Touch your right arm
With your left hand… slide
Imagine that I’m
By your side
If you want more…
Soften your lips
Feel them with your
Fingertips
Imagine that I’m…
Kissing you
The rest for these lines
Be taboo

Wheat Ears – Selected Poems

Embalming

And the time came to speak the truth

rising through the cracks of the floor

four signs of distress sent

to the four corners of the globe

and I positioned myself

before the wrath of Zeus

when the mistral blew against me

and the terrace creaked

as if agreeing with my anger

at the little people who always knelt

while golden nymphs 

reminded me of man’s misery when

finally, I placed my head on the pillow

to spend my long night of solitude

truthfully, Him I was, the splendorous

loner, the irritable saviour

foolish enough to be embalmed
