WHY IS THEIR LOVE ALIVE

So simple...

The sun and the moon
lighten and brighten
these two ghosts making love

They are dead...




WHY IS THEIR LOVE DEAD

So simple...

The sun no longer lightens their shadows
when walking together.

The moon no longer brightens their nights
while sleeping next to each other.




I BELIEVE IT

I was young
beautiful then
They told me so
I believed it

I was old
was it less attractive?
They told me so
I believed it

The world was at my feet
Future was mine
They told me so
I believed it

Did I fail in my life?
Time to retire
They told me so
I believed it

Today
I don't believe them anymore
My only happiness was
when I dared
to believe in myself
and this...
I believe it




LAUGHING HEART TWO

You are my laughing heart
programmed with love,
celestial computer,
translucent disc,
year 2000.

You are my eternal laughing heart
bleeding the sap of energy,
laughing at my other self,
squeezing my creativity,
swallowing my shadow.

You are my laughing heart
backed up million years ago,
crystal clear echo,
laughing at comets
shooting at us.

You are my laughing heart
scattered in all our cells,
forever together,
virus of love,
laughing heart,
heart laughing.

You
are
and

I love you




THE MURDERER

He is standing there
tall in front of me
I am not trembling...

This man guns you down
with his eyes,
he loves
submissive women
I look at him
I am not trembling...

Knowing it will be him or me
knowing he wants to kill me
knowing he is magic
I am not trembling...

The moon is up
I am sitting down
The man does not make a move
my eyes stare at him
misfortune is my deepest pain
I am not trembling...

Night is growing into an defeat
I suffocate with sadness
The man becomes a statue
I am standing up
I am not trembling...

Running into his arms
one last glance
before screaming
Mother




LOVE'S MESSAGE

New York City.
Few blocks
from home.

Bum standing, begging...
at the corner
of the street.

He belongs to this
everyday
scene.

I notice...
he always declines money
from passers by.

What is his goal?

One day,
I approach him...
drop some change in his cup.

A big smile
becomes his face.
He thanks me.

Amazed
I ask him
"Why do you refuse from everyone but me?"

"I only take
from people I love",
he answers me.

My face becomes a big smile.
