The Sea and the Rain,
a glance, little tables around the earth…
he will fall far from here.
That she was born in a country that you,
you’ll never go to,
(preferring above all, the fabulous animals),
but at this moment the apocalyptic beast
was death.
It is two little birds she has closed up in her dress,
flowers as sweet as hair on handsome postcards.
A great big bird, he like her hair better,
every night in the midst of dreams
composed of such high and preemptory phantoms…
unpeopled dreams…
The hour struck for the lighting of lamps,
that superb comet, unable to repudiate the miracle
of its course across the skies,
her pearls,
her feathers,
her miracles…
