Ne tremblez pas,
mais je dois le dire elle fut assassinée aucouteau parun fichu mauvais garçon,
dans sa chambre,
là-bas derrière lePanthéon,rue Descartes,
où mourut Paul Verlaine.O!
oui,
je l'ai bien aimée ma petite "Petit Verglas"
àmoi si bonneet si douce et si triste.
Pourquoi sa tristesse ?
Je ne l'avaispasdeviné,
je ne pouvais pas le deviner.Non,
je l'ai su après tu me l'avais caché que ton père était mortsurl'échafaud,
Petit Verglas !
J'aurais bien dû
le comprendreà tes sourires.J'aurais dû
le deviner à tes petits yeux,
battus de sang,
àton bleuregard indéfinissable,
papillotant et plein de retenue.Et moi qui avais toujours l'air de te dire "
Mademoiselle,voulez-vouspartager ma statue ?
"
Ah !
J'aurais dû
comprendre àtes sourires,
tesyeux bleus battus et plein de retenue.Et je t'appelais comme ça,
le Petit Verglas,
que c'est bêteun poète !O!
petite chair transie !
Moi,
je l'ai su après que ton pèreétait mort ainsi...Pardonne-moi,
Petit Verglas.
Volez,
les anges !
