you carry a stone gaze on four feathers you carry a stone sigh on four leaves using the polite or the familiar form on a mountain of cups refreshes the façade of kisses waters the symmetrical souls that drop from their left hands into their right-hand mouths and gobble one another down without kid gloves using the polite or the familiar form on a mountain of cups gives night to a day that's dressed to the hilt and that flies off with posh ears and snowy shoes to alight on the head of a star that imitates the human voice

5. Sophie Dreamed Sophie Danced  [sung text not yet checked]
You would always dream of winged stars, of flowers cajoling flowers on the lips of infinity, of light-sources blossoming out, of symmetrical bloomings, of breathing silks, of serene sciences, far from the houses of a thousand darts and the prostrations of naive deserts, among a thousand untidy miracles. You dreamed of things that rest in the immutable home of light. You painted an unveiled rose, a bouquet of waves, a live crystal.
