Alcools ~ Hotels
written by Guillaume Apollinaire
Alcools: Hôtels, Translation A. S. Kline Link to further information





The room is free

Each for himself

A new arrival

Pays by the month


The boss is doubtful

Whether you’ll pay

Like a top

I spin on the way


The traffic noise

My neighbour gross

Who puffs an acrid

English smoke


O La Vallière

Who limps and smiles

In my prayers

The bedside table


And all the company

in this hotel

know the languages

of Babel


Let’s shut our doors

With a double lock

And each adore

his lonely love
