My dance

 

Plato refuses the poet citizenship
Wandering Jew
Metaphysical Don Juan
Friends, relations
You’ve forgotten your customs and acquired no habits
You must escape the tyranny of the magazines
Literature
Impoverished life
Misplaced pride
Mask
Woman, the dance Nietzsche wanted to teach us to dance
Woman
But the irony?
 
Always coming and going
A special kind of bumming
All men, all countries
That’s how you are no longer a burden
You are weightless
 
I'm a gentleman who is crossing always the same Europes
         in fabulous express trains and in despair looks out the
         window
The landscape doesn’t interest me any more
But the dance of the landscape Dance-landscape
Ladeedadeeda
I’m turning in all directions
