The city

City walls stick like a prison of liquorice

It rains on the summers 

erasing words from a farewell letter

without adress  and recipient ...

The city\'s windows  are only closed eyes

on faces forgotten by life ,

a mad man haunts the empty streets...

  Is this  a poet or a serial killer ?

The city is a bored old maid ,

she loves sparrow with no memory

and wanderers chilling on the banks ...

 A wise dog pees on graffiti...

 I\'m the city traveler 

    quiet cat ,

everyday  explorer of  clouds

 lost in rooftops ...

I fall asleep ,trapped in a shoebox,

lulled by the distant flight of a steel bird

linking  Buenos-aires  to Brussels ...

I have so much tenderness of this city

that I hate...

And that one day I\'ll leave 

like a lover without pleasure 

whose lean arms comfort me...
