Premium Member Bad News, Morose News
It’s like being hit by a meteor
Where there’s no tomorrow
It is like doomsday, really
Where everything is ugly
And absolutely nothing is pretty
I just received the bad news
That my sister-in-law had died
Suddenly and extemporaneously
Without being sick tremendously
I...

Liberation of Paris (August 26, 1944)

Who would have thought
To see American soldiers
Under the Arc de Triomphe
Marching along Champs Élysées,
In the Liberation of Paris;
When a short while ago
German soldiers' goosesteps
Thumped on the avenues,
Filling Parisian hearts with...

Deny It Or Believe It

To overcome fear, avoid confusion, maintain commonsense or whatever!
But this story of mine is an experience I record as game of nature;
Revisiting it, wondering on the hows...

Magpies Comunicate With the Dead
Do magpies communicate with the dead? 
It is not uncommon to see magpies in a cemetery
Silent and calm, watch over the graves,
The flowery tombs and the so dogmatic crosses

I often see them in cemeteries thinking,
As...

The Real Terror
The necktie wearers, and flag pin bearers
Combing arcane smiles 
With not one word out of place 
Colluded to recreate
Pearl harbor's reincarnate
History's wounds slashed by new swords
A mirror of quondam contempt 
Semblance of peace sat behind...

Valse Des Morts
Translation below

Valse des morts


Je valse
Je valse, valse, valse
le journée, la nuit
Le long des rues
Le long de la rivière
Je valse jusqu'à ce que je ressens la douleur
partout, partout, sur moi
la pluie tombe sur ma douleur
Je murmure...

She Sings,The Dumb Mouth
She sings,
The dumb mouth,
But she sings.
There is,    beyond the deads,
The time's continuity,

It continues in silence,
As crazes the stone
... And have no  more eyes to cry,
Does not means,  so far,

La Guerre Folle
La guerre folingue a largué des bombes sur un cimetière
Les morts,trop absorbés à savonner leurs péchés d'hier,
Ont d'abord pris le bruit pour un tonitruant tonnerre
Nonchalants,ils ont campé dans leurs tanières

Ont eu une pensée pour ceux...

Reves Perdus, Reves Morts
Rêves perdus, rêves morts

Les fleurs dansent
Les fleurs chantent
Le printemps est ici
Je suis, pas loin d'ici


Dans la forêt
Dans une cabine
Caché
Avec mon cœur
Rien ne me touche ici


Je suis sans pays
Rien ne coule dans mes veines
Je suis seulement
Quelqu’un...
