Écrire un poème par jour pendant le mois d'avril
Napomo 2020

1.

je me trouverai un abri

en U vers le haut

qui regarde les étoiles

qui récolte la pluie

pour se baigner 

même la nuit

j'irai là quand tu regardes pas

je ferai des fresques infinies sur les murs en rond

l'histoire des cycles que tu ne comprends pas

et quand je reviendrai près de toi

je te les conterai tout bas

assoupi, tu m'écoutes

j'aime ça.

 

2.

j’avalerai l’ouragan

pour faire semblant 

qu’il est passé

les hortensias chez maman

partent au vent en-d’dans. 

j’voudrais réparer

tes cabanes à oiseaux

j’aimerais 

que ça sente les lilas

pour toi aussi

ferme les yeux

s’il-te-plaît

ferme les yeux.

 

3.

pascale capable

soulève l’échelle

pète presque rien

ballote juste un peu

existe au complet

rigole en même temps

pascale capable

passe à un autre appel

demande-moi pas

aux quinze secondes

si chu correcte

je vais pas casser en deux

en bougeant

une poche de terre

pascanac

pas d’craques

toute beau

toute prop

presque pas d’marques

tu me dérangeras 

quand tu sauras comment le faire

en attendant

pascale capable.

 

4. 

tu oublies déjà

toute la douceur avec laquelle

on peut être amis

on vit dans deux vaisseaux

de la Terre à nos rêveries d’enfants

tellement différents

tellement côtes à côtes 

j’aimerais que tu me racontes

comment ça se passe

que tu me décrives la vue

que tu 

sois doux

ici

il fait chaud

je vois la mer noire

et la muraille de Chine

les étoiles se mêlent aux oiseaux

une drôle de chaises musicales

ici 

tu cognerais ta tête 

c’est tout microbe

tout petit petit

mais j’te l’dis

t’es toujours 

toujours 

toujours 

toujours 

toujours 

toujours 

toujours 

toujours 

le bienvenu. 

et tu l’seras encore longtemps. 

 

5.

mes amis veulent se pendre

leurs cordes font des boucles

ils s'attachent autour de moi

font leurs noeuds tranquillement

des gestes mécaniques

on les voit plus.

mes amis veulent se noyer

en marchant le long de la st-françois

on a découvert un nouveau sentier

pour se perdre

la bouette plein nos histoires

le printemps qui nous fond 

dans les yeux

on a esquivé la mort

encore.

mes amis veulent mourir

ils regardent pas

en traversant la rue

un vélo, un char, un bus

ils disent

"prends-moi vivant

maintenant

fais qu'on m'oublie vite"

j'ai trop d'espoir pour eux.

mes amis veulent mourir et moi

je veux vivre avec eux.

j'aimerais qu'ils me voient jamais

chercher des réponses

le tête brouillée de leurs brumes

tes petits doigts anxieux qui cherchent

sur quoi te raccrocher

tiens-toi bien

s'il-te-plaît.

 

7. (en rattrapage)

une fois

une amie m'a dit

que quand on se force 

mais qu'on a pu d'jus

on puise dans une tinque à gaz limitée

dans les reins

j'connais pas la science derrière

mais mon papa veut toujours

sauver la situation

et il a beaucoup mal

au bas du dos

écrire un poème par jour

hier 

a feelé comme tirer du jus

de ma tinque à reins créative

 

8. 

(k moi too.)

tu m’demandes où j’trouve mon jus

j’le trouve

dans mon linge sale 

dans l’tiroir d’en bas

dans la chambre à air

dans mon jus d’pomme

dans mon ventre

dans les flaques d’huile

dans le frigo

à côté 

l’autre à côté 

l’aut’ gauche

pis l’aut’ droite aussi

dans l’eau

« dans boîtagants »

entre ses dents

en arrière du monsieur 

sur internet 

t’sais la page, là

avec les jeux flash

je l’sais tu, moi, où j’trouve ça 

dans ma tête

 

10.

mes mains

enfin noircies

me font sentir

que j’arrive

la patience pognée

d’ins ongles

un semi de tomates

pointe son nez

électrisant

j’arrive.

 

9.

j’ai vu tantôt

entre deux sacs de terreau 

ton papa

qui te dit de pas scraper tes jeans

en jouant avec les outils

vous magasiniez à la quincaillerie

sortie de grands

il avait besoin « d’une coupe de deux par quat’ »

et de compost

pour te faire un p’tit bac de jardin dans cour

t’as 11 ans

tu veux tout comprendre

comment le « boat serre la visse »

comme dit papa

comment on fait ça 

un bac de jardin

pis une cabane à oiseaux 

pis tu voudrais poser 

tes propres tablettes

quand tu vas être grande

j’me suis rappelée 

de toi

dans l’centre jardin

j’vous ai suggéré le fumier de poules

vous m’avez salué e en partant

j’te souhaite de tout savoir

pis de te construire

un phare

quand tu vas être grande.

 

11.

chaque jour

dessiner une plante 

j’ai dit

« regarde les plantes pousser »

leurs silhouettes 

des teintes de vert

plus que j’ai de pastels

lundi

la pothos

le trait de sa tige

s’étire un peu plus encore sur la feuille

qu’il y a sept jours

des sirènes dehors

l’univers crisse sur l’asphalte 

fait des tonneaux 

et la coleus 

a de nouvelles 

toutes petites feuilles roses

elle regarde par la fenêtre 

reçoit rien que les maigres rayons du nord

je la regarde pousser

de toutes mes forces

 

12. 

une vieille femme dort

se tenant la tête ensanglantée 

d’une petite main 

de salle d’attente

un groupe de parleux

se plaignent des ceuses

qui respectent pas les mesures

l’autre se ronge les ongles

en jouant à candy crush

moi j’dessine la dame qui dort

au bandage enrubanné 

le miracle humain

cherche plus

c’est ici

 

13.

souvent j'rêve aux autres

les inatteignables

les beaux

les grands

les géants de ma vie

les obsessions habituelles

on marche main dans la main

on est  fulgurants

on est amoureux

on a l'habitude

on passe partout

je me réveille attendri e et songeus e

cette nuit

j'ai rêvé à toi

ouin

tu m'as engueulé e

parce que j'avais pas lavé

les cabarets

comme il faut.

reviens-en

des cabarets.

 

 

je ne veux pas

que mourir 

devienne criminel

je ne parlerai pas

des rois

et des dieux

ils ne m’écouteront pas

de toute manière 

je ne cherche plus

je marche tranquillement 

les vitrines craquées 

des entreprises locales

je ne lis pas les journaux 

les poubelles brûlent 

je mange du plastique

au bord de la rivière 

et j’écoute les canards 

je ne veux pas 

que mourir

devienne 

criminel

parce que mourir

prend toutes ses couleurs

quand le reste

sent

les poubelles 

et le feu

mourir aujourd’hui 

c’est le silence du ciel

qui s’étonne à nous voir

sans cesse nous perdre

mourir aujourd’hui 

c’est voir le promoteur 

couper nos collines

et ne rien dire

je reste là

et je ne bouge plus.

 

 

 

souvent

c'est ironique

mais ça pousse en mauvaises herbes

une affiche sur belvédère

un projet de développement sur la well

un condo

arrivé tout fait pendant la nuit

on ne sait quand

d'on ne sait où

 

habituellement

je ne le vois pas

 

mais cette fois-là

je l'ai vu

en pleine action

il était là

sur la terre 

près de chez mon père

qui me fait rêver

d'être une vache

depuis que je suis enfant

il était là

avec ses plans de géant

ses grandes idées

son veston à rallonge

un personnage mythique

qu'on ne voit que dans les livres

près des gnomes

et des farfadets

 

le promoteur

 

j'ai pas tout de suite su

quoi faire

on n'est jamais préparé

à voir un fantôme

je me suis postée

derrière un arbre

et je l'ai toisé

lui et ses suivant.e.s

un petit essaim

le vent me rapportait leurs grands mots

de gens à vestons

à rallonge

ils parlent

de prestige

d'idéal

de 

nouveaux

horizons

 

je pouvais pas

le laisser couper

nos collines

pour voir plus loin

pas celles-là

pas aujourd'hui

 

aujourd'hui

les vallées

servaient de hamac

à mon regard fatigué

et j'en avais besoin

 

je n'avais pas de temps à perdre

une apparition si rare

ne dure jamais bien longtemps

il me fallait faire quelque chose

et vite

 

on ne m'avait pas remarquée

et sa mercedez était à seulement

quelques pas

 

il l'avait laissée débarrée

parce qu'où vont les promoteurs

est chez eux

c'est ce que j'ai lu

 

je suis entrée

sur la banquette arrière

mon coeur en guerre

à faire péter ses vitres teintées

restée discrète

et j'ai attendu

 

j'ai entendu leur bourdonnement distingué

qui s'est rapproché

leurs talons hauts

leurs cuirs d'italie

s'enfonçait dans la terre molle

c'était bien lui

au devant de sa p'tite nuée

 

il a ouvert grand la portière

dit ses dernières salutations

distinguées, toujours

et s'est engouffré dans la voiture

 

par principe

je ne lui ai pas donné le temps

de tourner la clé dans le contact

j'ai utilisé la vieille chemise de peinture

de mon père

j'ai été surprise

par la faillibilité

d'un être si luxueux

 

quelques secondes

et une agitation vague des bras

comme les pattes d'un cafard

 

plus un bruit

le silence de la campagne est revenu

 

la mauvaise herbe

de toutes les couleurs

n'a jamais si bien poussé

 

c'est à en croire

que la terre est plus riche

qu'elle ne l'était

 

*extrait de mon futur roman à succès intitulé "j'ai tué le promoteur"

 

17.

 

quand j’étais petite

j’aimais remplir

les formulaires

 

comme des examens

où je connaissais 

toutes les réponses

et sinon

y a papamaman à côté

pour tricher

 

j’attends au bord du téléphone

en speaker phone

depuis une heure

assise s’a bol

ambiance ascenseur à mille étages 

 

les fourmis d’in jambes

à en oublier la question 

envie de ne plus faire partie

envie de dire game over

le jeu

est même pas l’fun

anyway

j’trouve pas de serviette

pour la jeter

et je pense à cette p’tite moi

qui connaissait les réponses

 

je déserterais

n’importe quand

cette jungle

de papiers

à signer

 

j’aimerais

retrouver

là où

au lieu 

d’un coup d’téléphone

c’est 

un coup d’main

là où

on peut vraiment disparaître 

pour vrai 

là où

on a l’droit d’oublier 

son numéro d’assurance sociale

 

les câbles de téléphone 

pètent

comme les écrins trop tight

d’un archet

à même 

mon incendie crânien 

et je saurai la réponse une autre fois

 

 

18.

à la fin du jour

le nid

de mousse

les doigts

les cheveux

qui plient

doucement

la lumière fumée 

l’embrasure

le front posé

tout est mou

enfin

silence

 

19. (rattrapage)

je suis échogène

c’est ce que des apprenti-échographes

penchés sur un petit écran en noir et blanc 

m’ont dit l’autre jour

(je travaillais comme patient e standardisé e, je suis pas enceinte, merci)

je suis échogène

ça veut dire

que sur l’écran de mon échographie 

on voit l’océan

les remous les dauphins l’orage qui

valsent

avec mes poumons

de mon foie poussent

fondent et réapparaissent 

encore et encore

des arbres noirs

mon cœur 

est une petite planète difforme

et fleurie

mon ventre est fait

de paysages à

couper mon souffle

...

...

« ok tu peux respirer »

le voilà

le diaphragme 

mon utérus

le tout petit monstre

dans ma jaquette bleu ciel

beurrée jusqu’au dos

de gelée bleu nuit

petit murmur médical

mes yeux se baignent

c’est émouvant, la mer

je voudrais leur dire, leur montrer

mais en médecine

on n’apprend pas

à guérir l’océan

 

20.

reste un peu

le temps des crêpes

ou juste que

le soleil se balade un peu

sans nous

 

juste un peu encore

que le matin s'épuise

sous les draps

 

gaspille ta journée

avec moi

 

21. 

j’ai réalisé

que je pense

à mes plantes

avant 

de penser à toi

le matin

.

.

.

(victoire)

 

24.

je lui ai fait l'amour

comme on part

une tondeuse

 

j'aime pourtant 

le gazon comme 

mes poils

 

long et sauvage.

 

25. 

 

j’aime les gens

qui marchent

près de la rivière 

ceux qui traversent la rue

un soulier détaché

j’aime les gens

qui chantent

tous seuls

ceux qui baissent les yeux

ceux qui courent en shorts

 

j’aime les gens

qui écoutent des podcasts

et les gens qui n’aiment rien

 

j’aime les gens qui hésitent

qui oublient de quoi ils parlaient

j’aime les gens essoufflés

parce qu’ils parlent trop

et ceux qui se justifient

 

j’aime ceux qui se coupent la parole

et s’excusent

ceux qui se retiennent de parler 

ceux qui ne savent plus quoi dire

et ceux qui se contredisent

sans s’en rendre compte

j’aime les gens 

qui rient tous seuls

 

j’aime ceux qui cherchent quoi faire avec leurs mains 

qui ne savent pas où s’accrocher

quand on ne dit plus rien

j’aime les silences

juste un peu trop long

quand mon cœur bat si fort 

m’implore

de trouver une banalité

un meuble de mots

ou quand c’est les oiseaux

qui prennent la relève 

 

j’aime les gens

qui fument et qui pleurent

quand les oiseaux se taisent

 

combien je vous aime...

 

26. 

 

j’ai 

pas pensé

aux conséquences

 

on

pense toujours

trop à elles

et elles pas à nous

 

j’me suis couché e sur le sol

plaquéventré e qu’on m’immole

je suis désolé e

 

j’ai voulu sauver

la face de la lune

elle m’a dit je t’aime

vas donc te coucher

 

si 

tu entends

le jour

 

viens

qu’on lui joue

un tour

 

toutes seules on peut briller

I thought she was born
when a shell falls
that I heard fall last summer.
it is not so.

my belly carries war
for a very long time.
my belly carries war
that my father's wore.
and that of his father
wore that of a distant elsewhere
that I have never known.

I have roots
who are angry with my wings
to want what they want.

you told me yesterday
hear your bones crack
under the pages

of a story you didn't write
and I you
understand

I slided on the cutout
from both sides of the world
of mine, surely

I felt
how we breathe

to the top
to the hollow
right here I would have planted myself

you know those moments
where the future is spread over a kitchen
worse on windows that overlook the snow

you know when you would settle down in a thought
you would start a family there
you might buy a dog there

it slid well ...

I arrive at the end of the measured days
the dust of sherbrooke smells of spring

sometimes
I pissed in the river
and I smiled in the sun
my backpack full of groceries
no leaf holder
it was a good time

along the galt is
the left knee starting to heat up
the unrolled turtleneck
improvised gas mask
I could remember what I was thinking

watching the tanks
splash me with brown puddles

I think I wondered how I do
to be happy too

my room is clean
I was able to friends
I'm so happy

no, it's not true
let's see
your best is a plant
you're chill
you are in heaven

you're right
I'm angels

I drank a smoothie
it was a green smoothie
yo
a green smoothie
I'm angels

I sorted my dust
and I put the things that look alike together
the trash can is full
and I was able to make friends

there's jazz and there's björk
well there is my succulent too

I'm angels

I even tore my curtain to make me a skirt
I took dried flowers
to reassure my usual hairstyle
the proud boots
the wrapped idea
I'm going cruising
the end of a loneliness
both hands on the microphone
the open heart
come and fix this for you
this material to imagination

it happens
to whistle you have to know how to vomit (that is the sentence?)
I dressed up for the ghosts
I screamed
as if to seduce
the end of the world

it echoed
in my cracks

it happens

they would smell like a lake and the edge of a fire
with a touch of the fragrant effort of a lumberjack
they would be made from lullabies and pillows

reckless sailboats
they would taste the fir
and write poems on my back
rhyming poems
would count the number of my vertebrae as if to remember it
and take my neck as we take the sea

this is me

you ask me
“Why do you want to isolate yourself? "
there is a volcano and splashing
you don't hear them
you are empathetic for what is heard
it's not your fault

and that's you

"We're social animals, you know"
the sublime woman on the big screen
who hides his face with one hand
so that we do not recognize her in the cinema room

you walked here for tea
and you speak all languages ​​without understanding me
you play the piano with headphones

"Music is a way
music is always a way
to understand ”

My beautiful unconditioned.

a movement in the appetite
a wave that postmoderns
no longer waited

I found you beautiful
and you ate with your mouth open
unusual objects
you walk as a work of contemporary art
in a parade of machinery

you're like a critic
that burns the pages
of the journal esse

your
a fucking masterpiece

I feel like crying when I see the fruit shops

we don't cry in the fruit

we laugh there we fuck

but we don't cry

it's well known

but fruit shops that overlook the street

of fruit galleries arranged by color

as in europe or in the south

there is not that in sherbrooke

Yes, good

i may be sick
cause i wrote too much poetry
tried so hard to open the valves
that my nose took on the job

i may have a cold
cause montreal smelled so much like memories
that my nose needed a break

maybe it is
hemorrhage from a tiny cataclysm
who, born in a bulge between two ribs,
spread to my sinuses
and in my lungs
some have dreams
i have a cold

am i sick
cause sleep is better for me
than existential crises
i watch Varda movies and eat soup

i guess
my body needed
to be unhealthy in some way
it's all about balance, what i say

well then
here's my napomo for today
well then
monapo, guide my steps

Yes mom
i know mom
I apologize
I have this anger mom
you see
I don't know when it starts
and I don't know how to make it finish
But
I want to live it mom
I want to make it exist
somewhere in the world
I want to see it burst
it's not your fault mom
and you know it's coming
and let it go
do you know that in?
you know it like me
and we are looking for what to say
and there is nothing to say
you are already doing so enough
i can't smile
and i don't want
you see
I do not want.

my head of tangled tentacles
of neurons that become inflamed

i could be the one
chilling in an empty softball field
to learn the guitar
under the fly spots

in ideal frustrated
in balance between passion
and desertion
i could just chill

I could worry
for what already touches me
Carry on
to live in
sinéad melodies
and lie down while waiting
let the summer pass

an idea-

being bored

a feeling

moving my fingers

on the waves

of the sheets

center of a room

filled with paper and knives

and thread and fabric tissues

a secret house for sleepy moments

and oh so short songs

wool blankets

merge into the curtains

they blend into each other

i must be a memory

the idea of ​​a spoon

the silence between

the covers

i'm on top of the blankets

but i won't be seen

i expect to be forgotten

while i examine a pillow

and all its subtleties

a fold a shadow a creek

and you're no where to be remembered

an idea-

being bored

with you

What for?


https://pascaleoui.bandcamp.com/track/pourquoi

because of the poems
from the chills in the back of the neck
because of my body
because of the mirrors
because of the drawings
because of likes
because of josé yvon and denis vanier
because of the bacon tea and the corbeil runaways
because of the morning days
because of the baklawas
because of my unfulfilled and insatiable desire for recognition
because of my fear of death
because of the sleeping beauty who had so much beautiful hair because she was doing nothing but sleeping while waiting for her life to begin in the arms of a man who would never meet her needs for respect and sensuality Platonic
because of denial
because of my hate
because of my father's hatred
because of the beaks in the neck not welcome
because of the treasure hunts
stock market investments
high school history lessons
because of my first stepmom
because of my second mother-in-law
because of my friends who didn't love each other
because of my friends who didn't love themselves
because of my running away
because of my nightmares
because of everything i felt losing my name
because of the mountains
streets
cents
of my ukulele which fit in the decor
because of those skirts that made me feel sensual
because of their thicknesses not possible and spontaneous dances on the edge of the highway listening to the music of hair in the speakers of the westfalia
because of the hash
because of other languages
because of the sea
because of the jams
because of the guys telling me I sing good without using words
because of the voluntary high
because of the scary high
because of the labyrinths
because of the advice
because of the pipes
because of the droughts
floods
earthquakes
of the end of the world
because of my catechesis teacher who spoke about my future
because of the shaved heads challenge
because of the cool reviews
because of pornography in nathan's bedroom at 12
because of the color days
because it feels good
because I don't think about it
because my parents told me to do whatever I want
and I think that's what I want
because my retina is more sensitive to color nuances than guys'
especially that of my brother
because I had good grades in high school
because I'm a baby who wishes I never touched a tax return
because I would like to stay forever in a mother's arms
even a mom who graffiti me
especially a mom who graffiti me
because I would like to move to a cave
because I'm too scared to leave the city and realize that in the end the city is not the source of all my problems
because I am invincible
because I don't know how to lose
because I don't take everything into consideration
because it makes me feel invincible
because I am an anarchist, I believe
because I had to close a collection of texts from students graduating in philosophy at uqam because I was getting too wet
because I enjoy reading texts of blueberries and peaches
because sometimes I would like to be Inuit
and that at other times I find myself perfectly stupid and privileged to even be able to think about it
because I believe in reincarnation
because I knew how to conjugate the verb to sew when I was 7 years old
because I said "it's good"
because I burst into tears a few seconds later
and that I realized that I had to become a baker's clown a few seconds later
because I lasted two years
because I lasted two years and eight months
because I lasted three years and six months
because I lasted five years and four months
because I lasted seven years
because I was fifteen and a half years old
because I toughé eighteen years and five months
because I toughé twenty-one years and 10 months
and that I still hold seated
because i was just born
because I felt like I was going to die
because julia cried when she thought about that
because his hands were shaking
because I can breathe into a microphone
because sense loses weight when you don't think about it
because I feel better when I don't think
because naked, I am sufficient
because naked, I disappeared
because my sheets are stained
because philippe didn't like my alarm clock songs
because zik-mou limited me to a cuilliere and I would have preferred to be a singer with taquino
because two chords are already a lot
because I make boxes to move in
because the sound of marbles inspires me to symphonies
because there are puppet theaters in my head
because I don't like the taste of vodka
because I can't swim
because otherwise I would have eaten too much cheese and cold meats
because I dreamed of alleys
because it's ridiculous and it's useless
because godspeed makes me wet
because I want to fuck around
because eyebrows are a passion
because because because
and then thanks

yeah
I don't feel it
but it's there
it's now

to date
I'm just sitting in the toilet
locker
but when i get up
wipe my hands
take the wheel
behind me
all boxes
stuffed with my things
left as dead

it will be there
really there
I will have nothing else in mind
only that
it will even whisper
in the cracks of the clouds
in the bends of the road

I will still have to find
to whom to offer my plants
and that I pass
the broom in the old apartment
But

I am there
I don't feel it yet

but under my feet
only my boots
under my feet
only my boots

I would like to send this text
in mourning for an atmosphere

of the time that I took
to take my breath / more than
my breath
my wind
my squall

than
it seems
I had lost a bit
somewhere in a ventilation hatch
aging
like the huge tree that filled the courtyard
and that we threatened to cut

I must pay tribute
on headphones
and to cucina povera

with pencils
and martine

at the water
and to mary
marie, my succulent marie

I must shower with praise
the cup of tea
elegant rounded shape
who
served on evenings in February or April
was ideal for airing
its content
and avoid
the burn

dried chamomile
this is what I prefer
