THE JEALOUS WELL

There was a well
in the corner of the garden where I never went.
I liked to paint the emptier north side,
totally ignoring the other part.

For more than a month now
I no longer paint.
The desire that took hold as I got out of bed
suddenly disappeared,
leaving in its wake a strange and depressing emptiness.

One summer day about five,
the weather was humid.
I was sleeping outside on a wicker chair
and I dreamt of the well.
It was as new
and someone had thrown a painting in it.

I gave a lot of thought
to the meaning of this dream
and above all to the fact
that I had never painted this well.
I think that it stole my inspiration
out of pride.
