Et de ratage en ratage, on s'habitue à ne jamais dépasser le stade du brouillon.
La vie n'est que l'interminable répétition d'une représentation qui n'aura jamais lieu.

---Hipolito, Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain

There is an endless ocean of blue hues
claiming my breath.
Underneath my feet, the space between my thighs,
the waves dance, high on Fate.
It does not matter that I do not wish to go,
the waves are there to take me regardless -
the laughter slowly dies,
the fish think that I too own fins
because I keep going deeper and deeper,
their bodies barely distinguishable
as I'm unable to stop the current,
as I become the current,
as I am the cold flow and warm swirls.

The black rocks are silent giants,
witnesses of this repetitive transfiguration -
the entrance,
the commencement of the dance,
the reconfiguration of senses;
the lost voice.

Re-visited Thrice

I keep re-visiting the same vision.
I step out into a land of green
and an endless road of woven asphalt and dried-up dirt,
the sun arching over my back,
my shoulders feeling the gentle breeze
as my feet begin to go up the hill.

Always - the green;
the trees,
the swaying grass,
the foliage partly covering the sky.

Always the movement,
the sound of rubber on the ground,
as I climb and run,
as I distress and shake the days off
and succumb
to the motion
less gravity.

Perhaps I could be your sanctuary
of flowing skirts and grainy pictures.
