1. Notes: 27 / 2 years ago  from i12bent
    Paul Eluard wrote a poem in homage to Man Ray:

The storm of a robe which fallsThen a simple body without cloudsSo come and tell me all your charmsYou who have had your share of happinessAnd who often bewails the dismal fate of the one who made you so happyYou who have no desire to reasonYou who knew not how to create a manWithout loving another
In the ebb and flow of a body which undressesAkin to the breast of twilightThe eye forms in line on the neglected dunesWhere the fountains hold naked hands within their clawsVestiges of bare forehead pale cheeks beneath the eyelashes of the horizonA rocket-like tear betrothed to the pastTo know that light was fertileChildish swallows mistake the earth for the sky
The dark room where the stones of cold are bareDo not say you have no fearYour look is level with my shoulderYou are too lovely to preach chastity
In the dark room where even the wheatis born of greediness
Remain unmovingAnd you are alone

    Paul Eluard wrote a poem in homage to Man Ray:

    The storm of a robe which falls
    Then a simple body without clouds
    So come and tell me all your charms
    You who have had your share of happiness
    And who often bewails the dismal fate of the one who made you so happy
    You who have no desire to reason
    You who knew not how to create a man
    Without loving another

    In the ebb and flow of a body which undresses
    Akin to the breast of twilight
    The eye forms in line on the neglected dunes
    Where the fountains hold naked hands within their claws
    Vestiges of bare forehead pale cheeks beneath the eyelashes of the horizon
    A rocket-like tear betrothed to the past
    To know that light was fertile
    Childish swallows mistake the earth for the sky

    The dark room where the stones of cold are bare
    Do not say you have no fear
    Your look is level with my shoulder
    You are too lovely to preach chastity

    In the dark room where even the wheat
    is born of greediness

    Remain unmoving
    And you are alone
