for Cazalis

The oblique doctor
Throws a pathetic camp
The ironic sky
Glitters joyfully

And in his ecstasy
The laughing sun
Horned insect Anastase
This is all the East

And what nobody laughs
At a bitter grin
Flowery Pulcheria
At the seaside

So that we go into raptures
Over Coco Barroil
Find Anastasie
A rhyme to roil

And make together
But with heat
A gesture that seems
One without fear
