You
gave me bits of silence
spéléologues de silence
To
dwell in
un endroit pour appeler à la patrie
There
were empty plates on tables
mais mon reste remplie alors que
d’autres voletaient de table en table
Boards
over paper, over glass and shutter doors
L’odeur, se décompose
But
you swept
gardé les lumières coulant à travers
les portes ouvertes
You
gave what you had
promis le reste
