"I've always wanted to write poems for two or three astronauts who are slightly distracted, in which life barely flickers; they sail like that, without a precise destination. I want you to imagine the smile of the astronaut sitting there, by the porthole, at a table; sipping a drink - what would it be like to drink? After reading you should have the impression that the poem rises (from the page) on tiptoe; kisses you on the cheek; then runs away; stops; turns around and laughs in your nose , like a clever child who you feel knows the secret of happiness."
