2.Contronatura

My dearest friend you can,
My dearest friend you can,
You can get well,
You can heat up,
You can heat up get well surely you can
My dearest friend don't go,
My dearest friend don't go,
Don't go to war,
Don't choose to go,
You will not win down the the cursed path
Of war...
This is the future of an illusion
Aggressive culture of despotism
Living fantasy of the immortal
The reality of an animal

4.Miss Modular

Sur la boe cartonn un trompe-l'oeil
Avoue volontiers qu'il est trompe-l'oeil.
Sur la boe cartonn un trompe-l'oeil
Avoue volontiers qu'il est trompe-l'oeil,

Donne l'id du jeu et du myste,
Un spectacle intime donne l'id du jeu et de l'humour,
Spectacle qui rime, qui suscite dans les yeux un lair,
Une douverte, une id qui peut jouer des tours,
Une muse, certes, donne l'id du jeu et du myste,
Un spectacle intime.

Sur la boe cartonn un trompe-l'oeil
Avoue volontiers qu'il est trompe-l'oeil.
Sur la boe cartonn un trompe-l'oeil
Avoue volontiers qu'il est trompe-l'oeil.

Miss modular

On the cased box a trompe l'oeil
Confesses willingly that it is trompe l'oeil.
On the cased box a trompe l'oeil
Confesses willingly that it is trompe l'oeil,

Gives the idea of the game and the mystery,
An intimate spectacle gives the idea of the game and the humour,
Spectacle that rhymes, that arouses on the eyes a flash,
A discovery, an idea that can play tricks,
A muse, admittedly, gives the idea of the game and the mystery,
An intimate spectacle.

On the cased box a trompe l'oeil
Confesses willingly that it is trompe l'oeil.
On the cased box a trompe l'oeil
Confesses willingly that it is trompe l'oeil.

8.Refractions In The Plastic Pulse

Ce qui est n'est pas clos, du point de vue le
Plus essentiel,
Ce qui est ouvert, est ?re
Dans une action sans fin,
Sans troph et sans gloire-
Une crtion sans fond,
Sans profit ni victoire

Refractions in the plastic pulse

What is isn't closed, in the point of view the
Most essential,
What is open, is to be
In a non-ending action,
Without trophy and without glory-
A creation without bottom,
Without profit nor victory


9.The Flower Called Nowhere

All the small boats on the water aren't
Going anywhere,
Surely they must be loaded with
More than simple matter,
Floating on top and gracefully tending
To the same pole,
All the small boats on the water
Going nowhere
Is it true that none of them, will ever
Break free and sail?
Feel the night is made of rocks,
The stagnant mass...
Is it true that none of them, will ever
Break free and sail?
Break free from the stagnant boats,
Left in obscurity
All the faces with their eyes closed,
Giving a smile,
Weightless
Like a body that would vacate to its
Own light
Is it true that none of these
Contented happy faces will not ever hear a cry,
Won't hear a cry?
Is it true that none of these contented
Happy faces will not ever hear a cry,
Filled with love not with desire,
Love not desire?


10.Ticker-tape Of The Unconscious

Vous iez l'idence,
Vous n'es plus que (???).
Vous iez l'idence,
Vous n'es plus que (???).
Vous iez l'ernit?
Vous n'es que du pass?

Ticker-tape of the unconscious

You were the evidence,
You are now only (???).
You were the evidence,
You are now only (???).
You were the eternity,
You are only some past.
