Mohamed Bachkar

Drunkenness Mounting the stairs of grapes

With bunches of grapes
I sewed
My own ladders
Of drunkenness.
While ascending
Robed in its own cloud
The sky slipped
Like a glass
Which on my lips splintered
Into stars
And overflowed through God’s wound . . .

DRUNKENNESS MOUNTING THE STAIRS OF GRAPES

Drunkenness Mounting the stairs of grapes

With bunches of grapes

My own ladders
Of drunkenness.
While ascending
Robed in its own cloud
The sky slipped
Like a glass
Which on my lips splintered
Into stars
And overflowed through God’s wound . . .
