CASTAWAY LOVERS
alpha control alpha control
two strangers
- a he and a she -
penetrated our solar system
their appearance is like ours
but we are worried
by their bizarre gestures
alpha control alpha control
they incline their heads backwards
open widely their mouths
and commit strident sounds
(calling that laughter)
they perform disgusting movements
in the void
after stupid rules
(calling that weightlessness dance)
they utter absurd phrases
(calling that poetry)
alpha control alpha control
we think they want to annihilate
our civilization
we're waiting for orders
destroy them
COSMIC REFLEXION
"We from the planet Hackstal
have discovered the Light of the Lights!"-
said to me Pawanashiwo.
"Come, I'll show you!"
And he removed a curtain of void
which made room to an exciting star.
Though so brilliant, it didn't blind me!
Though mute, I understood it!
"We invented a mirror in which every creature
can look at its soul!"- said Pawanashiwo.
"This light is yourself!"
"It can't be true," I shouted,
"everything is an illusion here!"
Suddenly, stutter of sight.
A halo of void all around me...
and a bright sadness in me.
TRANSPARENCE
There was a galaxy inhabited
by transparent beings.
Rayen, one of them, felt it was wrong
that the Architect of the Cosmos
had forgotten them
for the colour distribution.
So he pulled out a small star from space
and, lightening his way,
started through the Universe
looking for justice.
His movement, from far away,
appeared like a falling star.
SUPER-VIDEORECORDERS
The inhabitants of the planet Xeo
carried strange videorecorders
connected to their brains,
which registered their thoughts.
If someone died,
the records were left
with the central headquarters.
"What are you doing with them?"- I asked.
"Think that the eyes see only
a part of the sky."-
they answered.
"What would you do if you see
the whole Cosmos?"
