Les Drapeaux

Maurice Rollinat 1846 (Châteauroux) – 1903 (Ivry-sur-Seine)



Les chevelures des amantes
Sont de luxurieux drapeaux
Toujours flottants, toujours dispos
Pour célébrer les chairs pâmantes.

Pas de résilles endormantes !
Ni diadèmes, ni chapeaux !
Les chevelures des amantes
Sont de luxurieux drapeaux

Et quand les nudités fumantes
Se confondent, souffles et peaux,
La Volupté tord sans repos
Et convulse dans ses tourmentes
Les chevelures des amantes.
