Trois couleurs
après les films de Krzysztof Kieślowski


Bleu
Fermer vos yeux
Aller sans
‘Moi’

Blanc

Même lutte
De votre cœur

Rouge
(Clan)destin
Aux autres/
Au temps perdu ?


Three colors
after the films of Krzysztof Kieślowski


Blue
To close your eyes
Go without
‘Me’

White
There
Same struggle
Of your heart

Red
(Clan)destine
For others/
For lost time?




Another Balloon


The car swerved a little
and a hand outstretched from the passenger’s seat
window let go of held ribbon

A voice cried out repeatedly it’s floating away
and indeed it was, beyond the darkness of the live oak boughs,
a slow pirouette in a sliver of silver light

The rear lights glared red
and the front wheels assumed a turn of indecision,
the bare arm wilting out in the open air

The car stopped to park before starting up again
for it was far too high up by now,
fast becoming absorbed into the deep blue twilight

The arm withdrew within
the vehicle kept circling the lot until it was out of sight
then returned the way it had come in
