soaring above the Cimetière de Belleville is a prominent pair of multi-legged water towers, installed like some colossal launching pads for shooting the myriad souls to the heavens... or as totemic-treillage tomb markers for twin-tympanic titans...
"Madame rêve d'artifices
des formes oblongues
et de totems qui la punissent...
d'un amour qui la flingue
d'une fusée qui l'épingle
au ciel
au ciel...
on est loin des amours de loin...
Madame rêve au ciel..."*
[*selected verses from "Madame rêve" by Alain BASHUNG, 1991 BARCLAY]
