pride

if  youd seen me now

behind clouds of  serenity and loss,

you  would  shake your head

with short  decisive movements

of precious compassion.

approving my enthusiasm of  words

disapproving my furious  love life.

shaking  this  proud  head of  yours

left to right with lips smoothcing  the  air

you  forgot to  breath.

left  and right,  ticking endless gestures

of pride, matching the beat of  your

heart when we met.

without

I swim to you with no arms

to embrace a warm body

when out  of the frost

of the channel waves

I swim to you  with no clothes

to cover your eyes

when  out of  the modesty

of an ancient ocean

I  swim to you  with no voice

to greet you  hello

when out of the silence

of  a dead  sea

last thing

last thing is my lust
lost in my red robe
escaping your list
