A woman wanders,
bearded, swollen, past maturity,
footsteps over walkways,
footsteps in the street,
adding no more than a tattered ghost
to the relics of Avignon.
Where are the children she has borne?
For she wears that mark too,
the softened hips, the soft wild eyes.
Where are the living lives she bore
to save her from the living death she suffers,
of muttering to familiar gods and spirits
broken nonsense from an unclean tongue
that throbs between crusted lips,
of insanity, of solitude,
of sleeping just outside the fortifications
where now she hesitates,
while within the walls
stand distorted in view in line les desmoiselles,
where now she slowly stoops,
where now she delicately spreads
a sheet on the cobblestone?
