For love all love of other sights controls,
And makes one little room an everywhere."

Le Vin Des Amants (Lover's Wine)

Aujourd'hui l'espace est splendide!
Sans mors, sans eperons, sans bride,
Partons a cheval sur le vin
Pour un ciel feerique et divin!

Comme deux anges que torture
Une implacable calenture,
Dans le bleu cristal du matin
Suivons le mirage lointain!

Mollement balances sur l'aile
Du tourbillon intelligent,
Dans un delire parallele,

Ma soeur, cote a cote nageant,
Nous furions sans repos ni treves
Vers le paradis de mes reves!
