Feeling
Two sparrows bloom on a wire.
Even electricity
knows when to calm down!

Fraud
Between the moon's page
And the whiteness of ink
A distance that pretends to be silent!

Shivering
Suddenly he rises up,
washes his senses-
the Partridge- in front of his twin!

Affection
Even the thorn of sorrow
stimulates emotion
when seen alone!

A Character
Close to the abyss;
far from amusement-
the "h" of sigh!

Winter
It is night.
A cloud rains darkness
on the drought of sight!

Oven
A hand intensifies the wind.
Another hand lifts up the sail.
The third is for the storm!

Drought
In the garden of salt,
there are no seeds of the herbs of "if"-
there are the hallucinations of thirst!

Contradiction
How heavy is
that sin-
despite its cuteness!

A Stare
Raise your head,
Narcissus;
a fixed gaze stirs the scent!

Loss
Aren't they "one"?
If so,
Who is still looking for the other half?

Greediness
He's never full.
She is never full.
Two greedy beings lost in their fusion!

Lack
Was she really here?
It seems that two eyes and one lust
are not enough!

Time
Waiting for her summer to be tamed,
The cactus of excuse
Grazes in the desert of his watch!

Hunting
Is it by the coquetry of her doe
or by forcing her,
he is being hunted!

Rape
Coarse fluff.
Thunder stop
Plowing its silk!

Sour taste
The "I" goes in.. The "He" goes in.
The "I" goes out…The "He" goes in.
He stabs the grapes of my heaven!

Attraction
Certainty scatters
as his body parts accumulate
over the extension of her traps!

Meditation
... ... ...
... ...
...

Salvation
I stretch my wings.
I stir my air.
Earth no longer looks like me!
