I do not know where I was
if I was sleeping
if I was dreaming
or imagining
that you were speaking
in the imperfect tense
in a distracted way about what was important
but I remember that I was existing
without delay
it was perfect where was I
ou j’etais
Je ne sais plus où j’étais
si je dormais
si je rêvais
ou j’imaginais
que tu parlais
d’un air distrait
à l’imparfait
de ce qui comptait
mais j’existais
sans délai
c’était parfait

sur fond de ciel froid
les mots doux se superposent
sur un papier gras
