The small gifts

Small gifts of air and tired light,
Of a more distant God. Vague signs
On the back of his graphs.
When everything you have love is sinking slowly
In air, light, in the mud of brain...
And remain ... What remain? Small reflexes in air
Scars, a music that expands
Indistinguishable the cells.
Till you are falling asleep. Or you are waking up? Until you fall again
In noise, in the straps lust, of dreams,
Even more sticky, more frightened.
Like the body. Increasingly frightened:
Of things, words. Mercury lakes
Covering everything that ever existed.
You, bite your lips, keep your eyes open,
Keep yourself close! To things, words.
Only there, out there are still appearing on the surface
Reflexes, voices, small gifts
Of air, light, of a God
Even more distant.
