I’m going to switch over to using tumblr. Over the coming weeks, I’ll keep this open to switch over select posts. Ultimately, tumblr offers more connectivity options than wordpress. Thanks for reading and please follow my new blog for more.

Spring In The Winter

I’ve fallen in love with the way trees bend and hook like so many crooked veins.

There’s a sense of nihilism that enshrouds everything like the silence of a freezing winter morning.

No one wants to move; cars even huddle together in their garages.

Life feels different. In the summer heat, soaked in humid joy, you can feel constant movement. Everyone is doing something.

But when you’re numbed from the cold, there’s no desire to do anything other than curl up.

People’s faces are even contorted by the cold. Hairless monkeys stand around gaping — their noses reddened the chilled air filling their nostrils. Instead they remain slack jawed as the life escapes out of them in white puffs.

Should we even be here, stagnantly goggling in the frigid frost of discontent?

Pour Toi

l'endroit en l'hiver

Je t’aime bien.
Je t’aime.

Chaque fois je t’ai vu,
je voulais
t’aie embrassé,
t’aie fait une bise
et m’aie enfoncé
dans ton corps.

Chaque fois je t’ai vu
tes yeux,
qui dansent comme les rayons
du soleil en l’été,
me saisissaient.

Chaque fois je t’ai vu
tes cheveux,
qui nagent
dans la brise
en l’hiver,
m’attisaient.

Je t’aime bien.
Je t’aime.

Cependant
je ne peux pas
t’aimer bien.
Je ne peux pas
t’aimer.

Nous aimons
notre copain
et ton amour
plus.

Il est mon frère.
La seule personne
qui m’a aidé –
m’a soigné –
après mon amour
m’a déchiré.

Je t’aime bien.
Je t’aime.
