Men like you

I performed this poem, heavily pregnant, in front of my theatre class. It's about the memories of my grandparents' house in Perth, which I sometimes dream about. I also revisit Bayswater each time I watch the film César et Rosalie by Claude Chabrol.

BAYSWATER DREAMING (2016)
A house unlike any I'd lived in, a real home
Cookie coloured carpet with chocolate swirls
trodden and marked by all five children
Panoramic view looking out to an endless street
through the lounge room window
Frosted glass doors slide out to the passage
A forbidden bedroom
Another, empty
Purple-pastelled bathroom, dusted in talcum velour
Green mesh patio with a see-through roof
gives light to banana trees and thorny succulents
Topaz crystal sparkles in from the pool
My tropical Bayswater universe
Adults eat, drink, gamble in a makeshift games room
I escape to the garden
The pecan and the lemon tree are my favourites
Climb up for a better view
beyond the fence
Little stream borders slick wet lawn
School boys home for the weekend
I jump
Down by the glistening pool
and think about
Getting in

//
J’ai séjourné il y a quelques années dans la ville où j’ai passé une partie de mon enfance : Bayswater. J’y suis retournée quelques temps après par hasard, à l’occasion d’un rêve. Je n’avais pas repensé à la maison de mes grands-parents jusqu’ici. Or dans mon rêve, certaines choses avaient changé. Il y avait de nouveaux propriétaires et l’océan parvenait jusqu’au seuil de la maison. Seul le jardin semblait ne pas avoir changé.
