Pourtant j'ai des souvenirs,
je me rappelle Worm, c'est à dire que j'ai
retenu le nom, et cet autre, comment
s'appelle-t-il, comment s'appelait-il,
dans sa jarre, je le vois bien, je le vois
mieux que moi, je sais comment il vivait,
maintenant je me rappelle, moi seul le
voyais, mais moi personne ne me voit, lui
non plus, je ne le vois plus, Mahood,
il s'appelait Mahood, je ne le vois plus,
je ne sais plus comment il vivait, il
n'est plus là, il n'a jamais été là,
je ne l'ai jamais vu, pourtant je m'en
souviens, pour que je m'en souviens
sans que j'en ai parlé, j'ai dû en
parler, les mêmes mots reviennent et
ce sont mes souvenirs.
