“Mes hanches
ton bassin éclipsait
un rivage;je m'étendais
pour ne plus revenir
j'ai hurlé ma famine
arrachée à toi”
Natasha Kanapé Fontaine

“Mon peuple est un peuple de nuages
nous ne les pelletons pas l'hiver
la neige nous élève en êtres insurgés
raquettes aux pieds, joues saillantes”
Natasha Kanapé Fontaine, Bleuets et abricots

“Si j'étais ce pigeon qui vomit
sur les hommes de bronze
fausses idoles carnassiers ivres
se tâtant le pectoral gauche
avec la main droite
lavée par les colombes

Qui d'autre est capable
de provoquer l'amnésie
octroyer la carence
à ceux qu'il gouverne

Qui d'autre sait appeler union
ce qui est discorde
pour s'arracher le premier
pour s'arracher le meilleur
des confins de toutes les colonies

qui d'autre sait appeler croissance
ce qui est régression”
Natasha Kanapé Fontaine, Bleuets et abricots
