A summer Paris evening for three friends
became a special scream in my mind.
I confess her midnight foreign charms
outlive the nightmares of a daylight coffin.
Obedient and silent to my daily death wish
I relive the horror of a slow death.
The dust which clutters my sickening memories
will soon erase that picture of you.
