(Swans - October 8, 2012)  

la ligne-timbre cosmique
of my vol dans nos yeux
ou rien, nuage, poussière
(le parc shining,
lointain âge-miracle)

and
isaiah:
vers moi on crie depuis séïr:
veilleur, où en est la nuit?

peace and leben
in front of massacre and murder
in front of a principle
of unknown liability,
and yet life-leben survives
on voices
that give evidence,
as water to drink,
evidence to be
cives unius mundi,
people of
one only
common world

but blinders, ciechi,
we wonder if
it's possible,
in spite of all,
to think the impossible...
