Analysis of Signe
Guillaume Apollinaire 1880 (Rome) – 1918 (Paris)
Je suis soumis au Chef du Signe de l'Automne
Partant j'aime les fruits je déteste les fleurs
Je regrette chacun des baisers que je donne
Tel un noyer gaulé dit au vent ses douleurs
Mon Automne éternelle ô ma saison mentale
Les mains des amantes d'antan jonchent ton sol
Une épouse me suit c'est mon ombre fatale
Les colombes ce soir prennent leur dernier vol
