A classic landscape
Horizon
defined by walls
lights arcades
-
On tiled walks
nudes
sleepwalking
They are cool
-
Their mouths
are seafoam
their throats
a whispering in the leaves
-
They pass by
staring straight ahead
as if in another
dimension
-
one hand touching
the genital rose
the other
brushing aside
-
waves of dark hair
Everything here
is asleep
houses in the moonlight
-
trees birds fountains
sleep
waiting for a cry
that never comes
