Antonin Artaud: Je ne crois plus aux mots des poèmes (Poème)

 

Je ne crois plus
aux mots des poème

Je ne crois plus aux mots des poèmes,
car ils ne soulèvent rien
et ne font rien.

Autrefois il y avait des poèmes
qui envoyaient un guerrier
se faire trouer la gueule,
mais la gueule trouée
le guerrier était mort,
et que lui restait-il de sa gloire à lui ?
Je veux dire de son transport ?
Rien.

Il était mort,
cela servait à éduquer dans les classes
les cons et les fils de cons qui viendraient
après lui et sont allés à de nouvelles guerres
atomiquement réglementées,

je crois qu’il y a un état où le guerrier
la gueule trouée
et mort, reste là
il continue à se battre
et à avancer,
il n’est pas mort,
il avance pour l’éternité.

Mais qui en voudrait
sauf moi ?

Et moi, qu’il vienne celui
qui me trouera la gueule
je l’attends.

Antonin Artaud
(1896 — 1948)
