Elegy VII (I)

13 January
REMEMBER
the garden paintings
on the walls of the viridaria
and the interiors of closed rooms
one
a background entirely of black
the lower part decorated
with geometric figures
in the upper part
some small columns
scanning the space of an orchard
two willows
one pomegranate
one empty basin
the other room
with a blue background
showed clumps of vegetation
the other garden
filled with trees
but also
with statues
with paintings
ARIADNE SLEEPING AT NAXOS VISITED BY DIONYSOS
garlands ornamented with masks and shields
and on an entablature of false openings
an ibis
a magpie
a crow
a robin
alternating with urns
outside
REMEMBER
the ruins
the dried grass
the three o'clock sun
the fatigue
& the house of the tragic poet
CAVE CANEM
