Amour, 28 avril 86 Je suis encore dans le réacteur Malgré que je désapprouve le fait de t'écrire J'ose l'âme en peine t'écrire quelques mots doux sur un bout de papier La vie n'est plus la même depuis la catastrophe Les industries les plus polluantes on été localisées J'essaie tant bien que mal de garder le sourire et de ne pas me laisser aller Dis aux enfants que leur papa reviendra très vite. Je les aime Le silence est insupportable, l'espace manque la démographie décroit à vitesse grand V Mais j'y crois encore! J'y crois encore! Toujours des débris encore chaque jours une mission. Tout détruire! Les rayons gamma raffolent de ma chaire. La chair est plus importante que l'eau Le plus important surement c'est de croire que l'on reviendra un jour Alors si toi aussi tu penses à moi, c'est que sans doute nous nous rejoindrons très très vite.
