Dates   

image

ONCE I USED TO THINK a lot about death

I used to determine accurate dates

in which I would die, the last one was

at the age of twenty eight

now I am 33 years old

walking in Paris and seeing dead people

thinking they are alive, and I

walk in Paris from store to store

and don't see any books of poetry,

they are in the corner that no man

can see, in a city of dead people

people without poetry

once I used to think a lot about death

now every day alienates me from death

I go from  death to life

to the light and someday  I will see the big light

on the day all people nickname death

it will be long ago like always

there I will meet you at seventeen

to tell you  there is love, and not only disappointment

there you will meet me at seventeen

to tell me there is life, not only death

and our lives will change without end.

past and  future

will cross will kiss inside a Star of David

past  future present

will unify will explode

then I will say to you this is not life

this is not the world because there is,

above all this there is something else

another world in which you and I are one

in which there is no death, only life

another world in which the light

does not become a shadow

in which it is possible to view the sun

another world in which  you are not in which I am not

in which  we are not alone

In which  we don't see ourselves

in which  we are but we

the more I live

the more

death distances from me.
