Boujema El Aoufi

Poem’s dream

For two reasons that resist speculation
The poem sleeps early
In the poet’s body:
Either because the poem abstains from dreaming
Or the warrior
Decided to rest!
Only between dreaming hands   does   the poem sleep in an upright position!

POEM\'S DREAM

Poem’s dream

For two reasons that resist speculation
The poem sleeps early
In the poet’s body:
Either because the poem abstains from dreaming
Or the warrior
Decided to rest!
Only between dreaming hands   does   the poem sleep in an upright position!
