The blind man passes
A perfumed woman in heels
Humming Midnight Sun.

The Cats / Haiku 12-16
My door stays open,
[Show French Version]
The neighbor's cats are welcome.
One sleeps on my bed,
Another one looks
Through my window at his home
Across the courtyard.
They show interest
In my bag, my books, my shoes.
They lie on their backs.
I build simple toys
With tape rolls and some thick string.
They don't want to leave.
The neighbor once asked:
"They like you! Do you feed them?"
I said: "No, we play."

The Goodbye / Haiku 5-7
Toulouse is gone now.
Céleste put him in my arms,
His body softened,
Lulled by our voices.
My warm breath on his white neck
One very last time.
We smoked on the couch
And listened to Debussy.
Bright room, quiet tears.

A song I sang for Toulouse: Meadowlarks (Fleet Foxes)
