Décollation
Language:
French
La lune, comme un sabre blanc
Sur un sombre coussin de moire,
Se courbe en la nocturne gloire
D'un ciel fantastique et dolent.
Un long Pierrot déambulant
Montre avec des gestes de foire
La lune, comme un sabre blanc
Sur un sombre coussin de moire.
Il flageole et, s'agenouillant,
Rêve dans l'immensité noire
Que pour la mort expiatoire
Sur son cou s'abat en sifflant
La lune, comme un sabre blanc.
