PORTRAIT OF A TWENTY—THREE—YEAR OLD MAN

PAINTED BY HIS AMATEUR FRIEND OF THE SAME AGE

He finished the portrait    yesterday at noon. Now

he studies it in detail.    He has painted him in a gray

unbuttoned suit,   dark gray; without

vest and tie.   With a rose colored shirt:

opened at the collar    so as to reveal

the beauty of his neck    and of his chest.

His forehead to the right   almost entirely

covered by his hair,    his beautiful hair

(combed in the way    he likes it this year).

There is this completely    lustful tone

that he tried to create   when he painted the eyes,

when he did the lips…   His mouth, those lips

that were made for a complete    erotic fulfillment.
