Six Changes


Watching your child be born.
Losing faith in your parents' religion.
Being told of your mother's death.
Making the decision to get married.
Being confronted by your own prejudices.
Discovering the universe within.

Loulou
[after Flaubert]

Repeat after me
Simon cannot see
Simon says you’re blue
You know it’s all too true
Polly want a cracker
Pusher and a hacker
Victor tried to flee
America at sea
Crown a hula halo
Teach the parrot Calo
Sundays with a host
Become the Holy Ghost
Then open up the sky
So Félicité can die
