nielles - Laruent Fels

stone of clay
in the void
of sands

you say
the absence
of the evening
remaining desire

to live
the memory
of the ash

erased
by the gesture
of two lips

sealed

the voices
in the shadow
a life

backwards
we would have liked
the loss of memory

before the door
remaining closed

how
draw

the silence
on the edge

of the body
left

a prey
to time

word
buried

beneath the
warm earth

message of here
in the oblivion
of the flesh

a hand
will remain reaching

Certain
of the smile

the elsewhere
in abyss

to bore the bed
with fire

hope
is only
a vanishing
blaze

history
is no longer
the same

before the phoenix
The shadow of the word

will tell
anamnesis

written
in the wound

and transplant memories
on open land

think
the instant

in front of eternity

leading to
cages of wind

the word
offered

against
the enemy

which corrodes
from behind

for José Ensch in memoriam
