Le texte écrit par le peintre en rebond sur l'oeuvre amène aux rêves enfouis d'un passé éternel :
"Les temps anciens mourraient quand nos âmes goûtaient le miel en rêvant. Les corps offerts avaient des odeurs de benjoin et d’ambre. Dans les chambres tapissées, des fleurs immortelles trempaient dans des bénitiers d’or. Les coussins étaient à nos pieds et nous avions décroché les miroirs."
