Mohammed Bennis

1948 / Fez

Frivolity

Don't ask him anything
about the pathways
perhaps he feels the weight
of the branches' lightsomeness
below the horizon threatened by silence
Don't ask him anything
about the dangers
the ending of his passion
perhaps
has its origin in him
Don't ask him anything
about the
rites
he is frivolous
he casts away his own blood
and leaps towards forgetting
