They depart suddenly
like a diving sunset
in exotic countries
and their memories
cling to our minds
but a tiny fraction of time
soon their faces melt
in the furnace of summer
with the painful oppression
of cicadas maiming silence
it takes a deep breath
to deliver their eulogy
and a short sigh thereafter
to switch to another soul
Claude Lopez-Ginisty
