26. We are the perfume of corridors Unfamiliarised with isolated activity Traitors of privacy. We are Utopian craftsmen Scope heeled diplomats, pretty beggars Not the product of poverty We don't take from anyone. We are pillared by mild sadness and polymorphic history Eternally skeptical, But We Believe. We are immortal volunteers Living in the sensation of being everything And the certitude of being nothing. We are just an outline. We disband prompted paths of movement Extend our bodies, Become abysmal dancers. We are illiterate of perfection, following the curves of belief. Interested only in the gestures of bending. Scaffolded postures,obscene geometry. Frozen irony. We are deranged.
