Project 52 Project 52 is a weekly blog activity in 2017. It derives from 2016's Project 366 (aka Project365+1). Its purpose is to provide an on-line community of practice for poets and artists who wish – over the year – to develop materials for publication, exhibition or performance.

Béatrice Machet # 5 NEITHER SOLID NOR LIQUID NOR GAS
# 5 (project 52) NEITHER SOLID NOR LIQUID NOR GAS
This poem would be a transition to end the Something series in order to move on to the Beam Series
Something. Hemming from the void of time. From a shoulder curve. Waves of promises never to be voiced. Is it birth is it flow is it both. Yet a swimming. A glide of a stroke. To the breast. A race leaving no trace. Yet the rebound bouncing its loneliness so as to accept abandon. Barely colored and delivered naked. Surreptitious. Something with no name but felt like a warm breath. A liquid caress as an evanescent shadow. Round. Bluish. Dissolved narrative gone with the cross swell.
Quelque chose. Ourlant venu du vide du temps. De la courbe d’une épaule. Vagues de promesses à ne jamais mettre en voix. Est-ce naissance est-ce flot est-ce tous les deux. Cependant une nage. Le glissé d’une brasse coulée. Une course ne laissant aucune trace. Pourtant le rebond relance sa solitude afin d’accepter l’abandon. A peine coloré et délivré nu. Subreptice. Quelque chose sans nom mais ressentie comme un souffle chaud. Une caresse liquide telle une ombre évanescente. Ronde. Bleuâtre. Une narration dissoute allée avec la houle traversière.
