Violoncelle [English translation]

Come, that I might cello you

Come, that I might twilight you

My little swallow

My gentle dragonfly

Come, that I might lace you

Come, that I might capsule you

My little spark

My precise comma

Come, that I might patience you

Come, that I might mystery you

My little innocence

My obscure light

Come, that I might stillness you

Come, that I might cross-border you

My little holiday

My starfish

Stay, that I might diligence you

Stay, that I might latch you

My evident rebellion

My gentle illumination

Stay, that I might gaze you

Stay, that I might morning you

My restless flight

My neighbouring vowel

Stay, that I might river you

Stay, that I might sail you

My tomorrow, my yesterday

My lasting moment

Stay, that I might velvet you

Stay, that I might root you

My feminine, my love

My journey, my routine

Leave, that I might distant you

Leave, that I might erase you

My obsidian pain

My little wound

Leave, that I might week you

Leave, so that I might ornament you

My next of kin

My perfect measure

Leave, that I might adieu you

Leave, that I might magic you

My all in the slightest detail

My line, my oblique

Leave, that I might sweater you

Leave, that I might music you

That I might worth you

That I might one-way you

Come, that I might cello you

Come, that I might twilight you

--P. (F.) Taylor, M.A. - Montréal, Québec - 2012
