Improvisation in whole tones by David W Solomons based on SN Solomons' poem after VerhaerenIn the dark silence of the home crutches and walking sticks go up and down the stairs of timeThe clocksEnamelled flowers, old devices,Numerals old and leanOn looming lunar facesMay be seen.Hammer and ratchet, leaden chimeand crafty wooden words.The conversation of the time may be heard.Dark time posts in the hall,Coffins sealed in the wall,Bones of old time devoured by the hours, The clocks, willing and vigilant,Like ancient servants, limp in their clogs along the years,And punctuate my fears.The original poem:La nuit, dans le silence en noir de nos demeures,Béquilles et bâtons, qui se cognent, là-bas ;Montant et dévalant les escaliers des heures,Les horloges, avec leurs pas ;Emaux naïfs derrière un verre, emblèmesEt fleurs d'antan, chiffres maigres et vieux ;Lunes des corridors, vides et blêmes,Les horloges, avec leurs yeux ;Sons morts, notes de plomb, marteaux et limes,Boutique en bois de mots sournoiset le babil des secondes minimes,Les horloges, avec leurs voix ;Gaines de chêne et bornes d'ombre,Cercueils scellés dans le mur froid,Vieux os du temps que grignote le nombre,Les horloges et leur effroi ;Les horlogesVolontaires et vigilantes,Pareilles aux vieilles servantesBoîtant de leurs sabots ou glissant sur leurs bas,Les horloges que j'interrogeSerrent ma peur en leur compas.
