Béatrice Machet # 313 Burning Snow



# 313 Burning Snow


A smell of snow’s hovering over one’s memory.

A powerful wind blurs up one’s vision.

No need to look. Touching will do.

Feeling the pulse of streams will shake alive what’s drifting sad and painful.

One is ready for the white to come down and bite skins in a slow roll of burning


Une odeur de neige plane au-dessus d’une mémoire.

Un vent puissant trouble la vision de quelqu’un.

Pas besoin de voir. Toucher suffira.

Sentir la pulsation des courants réveillera en le secouant ce qui dérive triste et douloureux.

On est prêt à recevoir le blanc posé en un lent rouleau brûlant et qu’il morde les peaux.
