Paris, Winter 1994


Paris in that night had the light
distributed for the drops of rain
Sartre and Beauvoir were not there
In Café de Flore, three or four
spoons of sugar drowned
the bitter taste of the coffee, they drank it
first my eyes as a ritual, my lips later
In my language I would write
a previsible poem
Other times, Paris was a bluish air bit.
