The Beautiful Gown

The one we love, she appears before us undressed. She is in a light dress, like those that once flourished on Sundays on church porches and the parquets of ballrooms. And yet she is naked - like a star at the breaking of day. Seeing you there, a clearing opened in my eyes. To see that white dress, as white as blue sky. 

By looking to the essential, the purity of the world is reborn.

untitled

Into the crucible of my solitude, 
you enter like the dawn, you surge forward like fire. 
You sweep into my soul like a river bursting its banks. 
And your laughter floods all my lands. 
When I looked deep inside myself, I found nothing: 
there, where everything was dark, a huge sun was turning. 
There where everything was dead, a small spring was dancing. 
A tiny woman who took up so much space:
I could not believe it. 
Love is the only true knowledge.
Love itself is an impenetrable mystery.
