“Behind my words are my hopes
And behind my hopes is an angel singing my death and yours
I said to her "It's the ending of a cycle and the ending of me in your life"
She is now awake to the sound of nature and the angel's voice
We are soaring in the approaching stars
I am dreaming and cannot comprehend it
I have seen the stars
Dear stars: the awakening and the loss, we are born and fall
Dear stars, you too are above and lost and hanging like a booklet unread yet open for us all
Behind my eyes is a secret
I vouched to never share it
I see the selfsame eyes of my mother and my grand mother
And the eyes of my great grandmother, whom I never knew but felt
And so this line unto the Alef and the omega point at infinity
With my eye still I see the light, the crow that sees everything and smiles
And knows everything and smile
We comprehend a moment through him and smile
I see all around my skin and beyond
I have sung one thousand songs on the electric body
I have invented my self
I have killed my self
I am just a form of English words written by an Algerian spirit”

“Now I bid tender night to the dormant martyrs below
To the one thousand and one night, to the angry shining stars above
To the vaudevillian theatre, to the troubadours and mendiants within
To us personas of a forgetten tragedy and long acts playing without
To you Mother Algiers”

“Now I give this rascal weight from off my head
The pride of a streetborn artist from off my chest
With my own hands I renounce my earthly claims
With my own sins I ink this very book
In this vaudevillian theater we’ve all had our plays
Of wisdom, folly, love songs and lamentations of twin flames”

“Raise my astral body to the space
And may the angels take me to higher plains
To the density where poets are gods,
Where my poems won’t be in vain
Look at the cities from up high
And see how bright Algiers can shine ;
To tell myself that, you, where you are,
You are the most sparkling light.”

“Codolyc 30 mg
And the cops come out of the woodwork
We hide in the holes we call home
Catch us if you can
And I hear la voix de ville humming in my head
And I see the sirens of the seven villes moving ahead
To come and greet the connoisseur of paths
Me I say « Bravo» and «Long live death»”
