Rodin’s kiss, rendez-vous in front
a film by Bruce Krebs


The story :


This poem is about a missed date... or almost.


Two hands grab a notebook and bring it back to the center of the image.
Zoom in.
One hand opens the notebook and the other writes the credits:"Le baiser de Rodin, rendez-vous devant".
(Rodin’s kiss, rendez-vous in front) Zoom in.
Impassive, resolutely,
A man and a woman kiss
With softness, patience and grace
Like a white marble statue.
Sweet, quiet, young and pretty
The woman embraces a caress
This strong man with tenderness
And with a kiss, to him binds.
From these two naked beings, escapes
A fragrance of eternity,
Like a hint of voluptuousness,
That the reality catches up.
"See you at the Rodin Museum,
In the large Dirt of Baiser",,
That message you left me
I still have it in my hand.
Why do I have to meet
Here, in front of that statue?
Before this naked kiss,
Is it a wink between us ?
We already kissed each other
As they: for a long time, patiently ?
Did we take one moment,
each of us, to tame ourselves ?
Love ketchup without coffee pose,
It’s not hard to describe ;
Love comes, like this, at worst,
Between two TV commercials.
And if by this kiss, Rodin
Wanted only to awaken us
No more! and we marvel
With a simple hand gesture?
For him love is only sweetness
De la douceur et du respect.
Its white marble in this aspect
Sends us back the idea of happiness.
The "happiness", yes, the "great happiness",
You only have that word in your mouth,
I understand better what’s affecting you,
…Capturing time … with softness.
You’re definitely not coming,that is certain
If that message were dictated to me,
And if I could decode it,
It’s thanks to you... Mr Rodin.
