There was the same sky in Brest and in San Francisco, A sky makes of oranges and strawberries, apples, And the poet knew that the earth was round and beautiful, That the girls lie down when they love. By coming back from the cinema, nothing was more similar, The poet had seen the movie of his life and stars, A life where the real poet does not have a word to say, Where he walks only by drawing a white trail But he saw the same madnesses in eyes, The same sadnesses and the same hopes, Nobody anymore listened to peace birds There was the same sky in Brest and in San Francisco. |

Where the 'white trail' begins is sad and where it ends is more sad. I drew one once yann and it nearly killed me. I know longer use paint, but chalk. It washes off when the rains come. ...just bein' Bluesy |

I sure like this poem. I like all your poems Yann but I need to comment on more of them! I want to die in my sleep like my grandfather...not like the passengers screaming in the back of his car. |

Sane sky here too, yann. It's our job, as poets, to make it beautiful. |
