A House We Can Never Find

We couldn’t wait

to leave their house,

to lie with lovers whose names

are forgotten now, to take risks

with our minds and bodies,

to live in countries

that never asked to have us,

or thanked us afterwards,

racing through the years with rage,

towards something that we

finally have one day,

and which is no more, no less

than the certainty of not

hearing their steps

creaking, measuring the floorboards

of a house we can never find.

Sleeping in the Alps

My father’s breath is like a cave

of dripping stalactites and echo.
