Cinema Calendar Of The Abstract Heart - 09 - Poem by Tristan Tzara

the fibres give in to your starry warmth
a lamp is called green and sees
carefully stepping into a season of fever
the wind has swept the rivers' magic
and i've perforated the nerve
by the clear frozen lake
has snapped the sabre
but the dance round terrace tables
shuts in the shock of the marble shudder
new sober

    Dang, I hate it when he runs out of drugs. He's not nearly as amusing when he takes himself seriously (Report) Reply
