Rendezvous with the artist .

I have a rendezvous with the artist .

Sometimes you come late at night 

or too early life ...

 you often have nothing to say to  me,

except boredom and rain .

So we stay here ,gathering the flowers of the hours.

 You step down from your star with the air 

of a nonchalant Persian ,solar wind plenipotentiary...

 Inspired whim that knows not where it comes from,

or what form it will take ...

 I listen to you without laughing when you explain to me

just how serious your foolishness is ...

  Do you think  to be a poet ?

 You\'re just a dancer balancing on a tightrope 

of pastels and pastiches ...

 Painting your lyrics in so many Babel blue 

that I get lost in them.

  Do you think to be a philosopher ?

Maybe just a spell caster and a seducer .

you call me, all confused ,telling : 

 \'\' Don\'t come ! Today I\'m in love until tonight ! \'\'

Always that old story I pretend to believe ! 

In the springtime of passion fruit ,

 you always dream of autumnal  melancholy...

  I have a rendezvous with this artist who\'s 

been bullying me ...

  and to whom I don\'t know how to say \'\' Go away ! \'\'

But do I want really to shackle myself

with the chains of this freedom ?

  Once again,I will be there to the rendezvous 

with this artist living in me ...
