BENJAMIN PERET'S ERA
(1889-1959)

Peret through
the fire in the ashes
of a changing shape
in eccentric language
desiring as a spectator
of words in  a crime's exile
undone from consciousness
from an alibi
of art's mistresses
composed in a flushed
actor of surrealistic essence
by maximizing and mixes
its poet's color in critical words
which geometrically incubates
and uniquely deposits
a still life and transfixes
your time and era
and which crashes
even in your absence.
