An Example of Good Daughter

Sliding down the great banister

Of the castle today

I put a nappy to my baby sister

A kiss on her face

An irregular pilot is flying under

His stattering plane

Can you fly through this violent thunder

Like bikers in rain ?

Every day, I go, I go ... gently risking my days

Every night, I run, I run...under moonlight rays

Tic toc, sings the great pendulum

Tongue hanging out in the grace of an angel home

Grandmother has wrapped her skinny fingers

In my curliness

I used to jump with the frogs and pond singers

With my shoes unlaced

It sucks, I have plenty of plucks oh oh oh

Playing with a snail

My nurse kissed me on the rocks

And kissed all the frogs

With bloody red glimmering lips

One man came

I have played to hide and seek with myself

Disappearing forever in my hiding place

One man came

Every night, I listen to an owl hooting

I'm so blessed

In summertime, I’m combining ploys

like bishops playing chess

Mama used to read stories in the garden

About sailors and sirens

I know I'm trapped again with sailor snails

But she said: You must stay in bed

Every night, my curtains are opened on a vast emptiness

Every day, keeping faith, I am still loved and blessed

Grannie don't die, dont' leave me like this

with my childhood all gone

I need you more, your fantastic planes

and fingers in my hair

I feel alone

treasures are gone

I am undone

strangers in my home

I stay in bed

during the whole day

Against the window

the sound of the rain

One man came

I have played to hide and seek with myself

Disappearing forever in my hiding place

One man came
