Prelude

Lorenz

Devil's manucured  hand 

wrings cries of pleasure 

from the battered fiddle's skin .

Bow is a whip of delight 

who lay bare the senses .

 I love this decadent prelude .

Morning will wake up 

to yesterday gropping 

in search of tomorrow ...

 Wall of the absents ,lament .

Midgets performing their ablutions

in the bunkers of power .

 Story 's plot consists solely

of industrial architectures 

and public transportation to Pitchipoi ...

 At noon ,train returning empty .

Appointment with afterlife schedulded .

 Lord let these cute corpses come to me

at the final trill ...

  Amour !  amour ! 

So many decent crimes in your name !

 Foolish troubadours worshipping you

in the quiet valleys of some ignored genocide...

Sensual Salome ,does the residue of your belly

have a soul in its animal  beauty ?

 at dawn a sandstorm from the Sahara 

clogged mouths ,causing turmoil 

among the tribe of flies ...

  Crematorium's  cuspidor .

Mourning prelude symphony .

 Paganini's return .

Play for me  Gypsy 

before joining the void !

Barett of fate  against my temple .

  Fatal kiss .

  In the midst of the rubble

  Let's have a rest  ...

    Sensuous and seductive the left handed one. Why do we beat the fiddle, such a siren's tone. Our mornings are always the refuse of yesterday and tomorrow but a dream away. Amour an executioner following orders. Where you see a cuspidor I see a bed pan. Always loved Paganini and as for Barett must be a relative mine has two r's. Good one my friend a fave

        In this poem, music sounds like a judgment upon humanity: the bow touches the string just as history touches a wound - mercilessly and precisely.

        • Lorenz

          Go full .return empty .
          You get used to the whistle just as you get used to the silence after .
          The rest is only noise .
