FANCY FLOURISHES

J'ai envie de Te prendre
au creux de ma main.

J'ai envie de Te saisir
tel un coquillage ou
même une pierre.

J'ai envie de Te biseauter
comme un jeu de cartes.

I need to hold You

in a deep position,

so that my fingers

can cover your whole

naked body ...

Almost like a birdcage...

But, inevitably, my hand

and your body are pulled apart,

and stripped out in disorder!

Returned to their original position,

shuffled and cutted in advance,

riffled like an old deck...

By this other invisible hand...
