PREMIÈRE
two women
in one spot
waking up after a night of sleep
where to practice it
fantasizing
demonstrating it
and the not so simple existence
floats for a moment on the surface of nothingness
two women
who meet each other
and let each other sound and collide
in their story ponds
of the amniotic fluid that gave birth to them
where the wrinkles
caused by the vibrations of life
everyone who enters their place
seems to want to wake you up for a moment
two women
who want to shake shake shake
with you and with yourself
by vomiting vomiting vomiting
until the place overflows
and the roof over all heads softens
so that it collapses
and no one yet knows where the body wants to float to
so that all the souls who lie in wait for them
become one
and venture calmly
to dive into the foolish
