Thank You Satan<\/em><\/p>\n

Pour la flamme que tu allumes
\nAu creux d’un lit pauvre ou rupin
\nPour le plaisir qui s’y consume
\nDans la toile ou dans le satin
\nPour les enfants que tu ranimes
\nAu fond des dortoirs ch\u00e9rubins
\nPour leurs p\u00e9tales anonymes
\nComme la rose du matin<\/p>\n

Thank you Satan<\/p>\n

Pour le voleur que tu recouvres
\nDe ton chandail tendre et rouquin
\nPour les portes que tu lui ouvres
\nSur la tani\u00e8re des rupins
\nPour le condamn\u00e9 que tu veilles
\nA l’Abbaye du monte en l’air
\nPour le rhum que tu lui conseilles
\nEt le m\u00e9got que tu lui sers<\/p>\n

Thank you Satan<\/p>\n

Pour les \u00e9toiles que tu s\u00e8mes
\nDans le remords des assassins
\nEt pour ce c?ur qui bat quand m\u00eame
\nDans la poitrine des putains
\nPour les id\u00e9es que tu maquilles
\nDans la t\u00eate des citoyens
\nPour la prise de la Bastille
\nM\u00eame si \u00e7a ne sert \u00e0 rien<\/p>\n

Thank you Satan<\/p>\n

Pour le pr\u00eatre qui s’exasp\u00e8re
\nA retrouver le doux agneau
\nPour le pinard \u00e9l\u00e9mentaire
\nQu’il prend pour du Ch\u00e2teau Margaux
\nPour l’anarchiste \u00e0 qui tu donnes
\nLes deux couleurs de ton pays
\nLe rouge pour na\u00eetre \u00e0 Barcelone
\nLe noir pour mourir \u00e0 Paris<\/p>\n

Thank you Satan<\/p>\n

Pour la s\u00e9pulture anonyme
\nQue tu fis \u00e0 Monsieur Mozart
\nSans croix ni rien sauf pour la frime
\nUn chien, croque-mort du hasard
\nPour les po\u00e8tes que tu glisses
\nAu chevet des adolescents
\nQuand poussent dans l’ombre complice
\nDes fleurs du mal de dix-sept ans<\/p>\n

Thank you Satan<\/p>\n

Pour le p\u00e9ch\u00e9 que tu fais na\u00eetre
\nAu sein des plus raides vertus
\nEt pour l’ennui qui va para\u00eetre
\nAu coin des lits o\u00f9 tu n’es plus
\nPour les ballots que tu fais pa\u00eetre
\nDans le pr\u00e9 comme des moutons
\nPour ton honneur \u00e0 ne para\u00eetre
\nJamais \u00e0 la t\u00e9l\u00e9vision<\/p>\n

Thank you Satan<\/p>\n

Pour tout cela et plus encor
\nPour la solitude des rois
\nLe rire des t\u00eates de morts
\nLe moyen de tourner la loi
\nEt qu’on ne me fasse point taire
\nEt que je chante pour ton bien
\nDans ce monde o\u00f9 les museli\u00e8res
\nNe sont plus faites pour les chiens…<\/p>\n

Thank you Satan!<\/p>\n

for the flame that you light
\nin the small of a poor or swanky bed
\nfor the pleasure that there consumes
\nin cloth or in satin
\nfor the children that you revive
\nin the depths of the cherub’s dorms
\nfor their anonymous petals
\nlike the morning rose<\/p>\n

thank you satan<\/p>\n

for the thief that you cover
\nwith your soft ginger pullover
\nfor the door that you open for him
\non the riches’ den
\nfor the convicted over whom you watch
\nat the abbey of the ascent
\nfor the rum that you recommend
\nand the butt that you serve him<\/p>\n

thank you satan<\/p>\n

for the stars that you sow
\nin the remorse of the assassins
\nand for the heart that’s still beating
\nin the whores’ chest
\nfor the ideas that you
\ndisguise in the citizens’ head
\nfor the storming of the Bastille
\neven if it is useless<\/p>\n

thank you satan<\/p>\n

for the priest who is exasperated
\nto find again the gentle lamb
\nfor the elementary booze
\nhe takes for some ‘Ch\u00e2teau Margaux’
\nfor the anarchist to whom you give
\nthe two colours of his country
\nthe red for being born in Barcelona
\nthe black for dying in Paris<\/p>\n

thank you satan<\/p>\n

for the anonymous sepulchre
\nthat you made for Monsieur Mozart
\nno cross nothing except for show
\na dog, undertaker of the chance
\nfor the poets that you slip
\non the teenagers’ bedhead
\nwhen in the conniving shadow
\n17 year-old fleurs du mal grow<\/p>\n

thank you satan<\/p>\n

for the sin that you bring
\nwithin the stiffest virtues
\nand for the boredom that will appear
\nat the corner of the beds where you no longer are
\nfor the fools that you make graze
\njust like the sheep in the meadow
\nfor your honour in appearing
\nnever on the television<\/p>\n

thank you satan<\/p>\n

for all that and even more
\nfor the solitude of the kings
\nthe laugh of the death’s heads
\nthe means to divert the law
\nand nobody dare try to keep me silent
\nI sing for your own good
\nin this world where muzzles
\nare no longer made for dogs…<\/p>\n

thank you satan<\/p>\n

Emergency rally for Gaza : Stop the Massacre! End the Siege Now!<\/h2>\n

5pm, Tuesday, 30th December
\nVictorian State Library
\nCnr La Trobe and Swanston St
\nMelbourne<\/p>\n

Over 230 people have been killed and more than 700 wounded (half of them critically) on Saturday, December 27, when the Israeli government launched a series of violent air strikes against the Palestinian civilian population of the Gaza Strip. <\/p>\n

The Israeli airstrikes, which saw 100 tonnes of bombs dropped across the region, took place at 11.30 am (Palestinian time) just as thousands of Palestinian school children were breaking from school to go home, resulting in many of them being killed or seriously injured.<\/p>\n

Journalists and human rights activists on the scene at Gaza Hospital are reporting gruesome scenes; shocked families pick through body parts to identify loved ones — amputated bodies are strewn throughout hallways because morgues in the city can no longer accommodate the dead.<\/p>\n

The Israeli air strikes against Gaza\u2019s 1.5 million civilian population comes on top of the Israeli imposed siege designed to strangle the life of the Palestinians living there, by denying them adequate fuel, food, medical supplies and power.<\/p>\n

The people of Gaza are standing steadfast in the face of these atrocities but we in the international community also need to raise our voices and be heard to demand an immediate end to Israel\u2019s massacre of hundreds of innocent people and for an end to the illegal siege and collective punishment of the Palestinian people.<\/p>\n

Join us and others around the world and raise your voices in opposition to Israel\u2019s war crimes and illegal collective punishment of the people of Gaza: Stop the Massacre! End the Siege Now!<\/p>\n
