As big as a whale
Tonight
I opened my eyes
and I went out
through the window
I watched
above the houses
above the roofs
and the chimneys
and I contemplated the marine
vastness
of the night sky
I read between the stars
who never stop reminding us
through their shimmering beauty
that it is urgent
to dream
seriously.
Pierre Filliez, Berlin 24. 10. 2020
The Circus
Carried by a dream
I leave for eternity
an ephemeral trace
a shooting star in darkness
happy and intense
making my heart beat
Thus
without a safety net
I inspire those who see me
dancing, juggling, swinging
who see me
falling down and getting up again
crying, laughing, sparkling
who see me
living.
Pierre Filliez, Berlin, the 05. 03. 2021
