lyrics
We ought to be swift, swift like the destruction - in every completion - of a world of genders, a green or cyan world, a fear we possess from the start, do you think it is US that brings about a strange, morbid slowness?
These letters have grown old and I will find you new ones. I will roam around Europe, harsh and half-crazy, shouting that it is the fault of chromosomes. That is, of mostly one, the x.
You knew it / you scorned it. You did well, I do the same, but can you hear it? It loves you it cares for you it falls in love with you it admires you it appreciates you it leans by your side sensuously and it feels you it helps you come round it calls for you it un der stands You.
You are an x too, and a double x indeed. But eternally condemned to be attracted to the y. The y is what makes you feel: it is arrogant, insolent, cynical, brilliant, active, charming. More beautiful than Narcissus, as he himself admits.
It gives you: anxiety, disquiet, despair, insecurity and all the fears filling you up. It humiliates and belittles you, but you always forgive it. You depend on its approval. It is real even when you do not know the real truth. The y…
A wizard of observation, a specialist of sarcasm, the most talented actor. It wears a mask and pretends to be x with enviable success.
Alertness needs release. I am not just saying this, the doctor said so, too: I can write all the time and I must do it. I will write: Poems / many poems.
Expression will be accompanied by quality. For other hands to touch you even in my own stories. This will be better for you and for me. My hands clumsy and unruly. Drunkards addicted to the failure of execution. But my mind, mademoiselle, is beautiful, rare. You know it, don’t you? It sows fairy-tales and then demolishes everything with truths - razors on your skin.
