Drinking from the Art Fountain ( an ephemeral becoming of a Jean Genet spirit homage to toilets for a short intervention at the White Cubicle Gallery in London



Drinking from The Art Fountain 

And the more low I go
so down
and lost
I have to recognise
that the only one
I am searching for
is you
You that hid
in the darkest
shades
there
where my soul
can't find you
There where
we can only
bite the heart
of the beasts
And yes
The lust again
under the stars
that we can't see
from the city
A lust
that appears
at any face
at any touch
Kisses so deep
and fingers
that taste
our wetness
Liquids
of what so many
had called Hell
A Heaven
That only lasts
a bit
while we go down
Down down down
Down on to this
that seems like
Oblivion
Flesh, skin and bones
tied to this present
Again

This is the place
where I meet you
a Temple
where we were
once sacred
The deepest
of holes
draining
golden drops
where the skin
learned the softness
of the cold tiles
This is the place
where the scent
is strong
profound
and wild
It would happen
again
an again
An always here
in that place
this lost and damp
territoire
And us
