Forbidden Colors
You chant the poetry in a flesh paradise
A dream with seven lives, seven angels
So violent and still so peaceful
Out of the riot
Releasing energy all around
Bodies moving in darkness
Fear is wearing a mask
Fragile palms push away the air
You breathe from an oxygen tube
An insect spreading wings , turning and returning
To the initial state
Of a cocoon
Sweet torture to reach a smile
In the garden, trees open wide their eyes
To watch the stray painters
Playing with forbidden colors
Ballerinas on the stage of life
Dancing a Butoh
