Sur/face
Light metal narcissus
devours his brother reflexion
the spark, invisible fire
the sacred incantation
the magical language
the desire revealed
an image possesses space
shadow tale
Illusion whispers in vain.
Hear the fire of silence
the heart mind.
the grid of multidimensional space
Sur/face
Un Narcisse de Fer et de Lumière
Dévore la reflexion de son frère
L’étincelle, le feux invisible
du chant sacré
la langue magique
du désir révelé.
Une image possède l espace
la fable des ombres
L’Illusion chuchote en vain.
Entend le feu du silence
le coeur esprit.
la trame de l’espace multidimensionnel
