Translated from the Night | x |
A purple star | 17 |
What invisible rat | 18 |
The hide of the black cow has been stretched | 19 |
What is happening beneath the earth | 20 |
You sleep my beloved | 21 |
A bird without color and without name | 22 |
You delude yourself | 31 |
They are innumerable rusted hands | 32 |
The black glassmaker | 33 |
You have just reread Virgil | 34 |
There will be a day a young poet | 35 |
How many times relieved | 36 |
She who was born before the light | 37 |
At the shore of stagnant shadows | 38 |
Ebb of the oceanic light | 23 |
The devotee has finished her daily verses | 24 |
The secret hives are aligned | 25 |
You there | 26 |
How many twins are they the winds? | 27 |
For the paupers preyed upon by bugs | 28 |
All the seasons are abolished | 29 |
Here | 30 |
Slow | 39 |
For what fruits for what clusters | 40 |
Thin plates of water glasses sparkling | 41 |
You built yourself a tower in the wind | 42 |
Sisters of the silence in sadness | 43 |
Listen to the maidens of rain | 44 |
There is a living water | 45 |
Vain all these anticipations | 46 |
