Honey Dew Hunt

An Erasure Poem
Lines from
Always For The First Time
Andre Breton ( 1896 - 1966 )



Hardly do I know you
I perhaps shall never meet you
You pretend not to know
I am watching you
It's a honey dew hunt
Two lovely legs caught in stockings
My finding the secret
Of loving you
Always for the first time


C'est a peine de je te connaisse de vue
Je ne te rencontrerai peut - etre jamais
Tu fais semblant de ne pas savoir que je t'observe
C'est une chasse a la miellee
Deux belles jambes croises prises dans le hauts bas
J'ai trouve le secret
De t'aimer
Toujours pour la premiere fois
