Les raisons de l'autre

Il ou elle a ses raisons. Ses raisons qui lui donnent raison. Il n'y a plus qu'à passer son chemin. En gardant dans un coin de mémoire le fait qu'un tel ou une telle a ses raisons, inébranlables, donc ne pas insister,  ne rien quémander.

Et tout autour de moi, une conversation se met en place avec plus grand que moi, qui ne veut pas me laisser choir.

Ce qui se passe autour de moi : de quoi me sentir concernée maintenant que le silence des anges retient mon attention.

River to River

 

Hai-Dang Phan

           After Jen Bervin / After Quan Barry

River spidering across the wall, sailing
through the air. River flashing with silver
sequins fastened to sunbeams. River always
in pieces, a torn ribbon streaming everywhere.
River carving out a canyon through the years,
seen from a sudden grassy overlook,
an old bridge, a new shoreline, endlessly
crossing and recrossing our lives. River
this winter with sixteen eagles alert
and searching. River unfrozen and pooling
around the ankles of trees in springtime,
daring us closer. River asleep inside
the black night like a spent lover,
dreaming of being a chandelier of rain,
first velvet wet drops on bare skin. Go,
go on. Conveyor belt of clouds, destroyer
and preserver of towns, longest breath
of the earth, tell us what floating means
to you. Some trees are weeping, river.
Speak of all you carry and carry off
in river song and river silence. Be horse,
be ferry, carry us from now to next to.
River, I’m done with fading shadows.
Give me daylight broken and scattered
across your fluid transparent face,
come meet me with the moon and the stars
running and tumbling along your sides.
River swinging open like a gate to the sea,
time’s no calendar of months, you say,
but water in the aftermath of light. 
Your drifting cargo tells us everything
arrives from far away and long ago
and ends in the body, boat of heartache
and ecstasy we pilot, in quest of passage also.
River we call Mississippi or Mekong,
sing us forth to nowhere but here,
with your perfect memory be our flood.

 

 

Enjoy !

 

 

 

Ici je crois reconnaître sous ses vêtements noirs, le policier irlandais en gilet jaune qui jouait de l'accordéon désaccordé, du post précédent. Là-bas, ils ont des pianos publics. Un viatique de paix !
