Homme, si haut soit-il ce mont inaccessible,
\n\ufeffO\u00f9 ton ardeur veut s\u2019\u00e9lancer
\n\ufeffNe crains jamais de harasser
\n\ufeffLes chevaux d\u2019or de l\u2019impossible.<\/p>\n
Monte plus loin, plus haut, que ton esprit retors
\n\ufeffVoudrait d\u2019abord, parmi les sources,
\n\ufeff\u00c0 mi-c\u00f4te, borner sa course ;
\n\ufeffToute la joie est dans l\u2019essor !<\/p>\n
Qui s\u2019arr\u00eate sur le chemin, bient\u00f4t d\u00e9vie ;
\n\ufeffC\u2019est l\u2019angoisse, c\u2019est la fureur,
\n\ufeffC\u2019est la rage contre l\u2019erreur,
\n\ufeffC\u2019est la fi\u00e8vre, qui sont la vie.<\/p>\n
Ce qui fut hier le but est l\u2019obstacle demain ;
\n\ufeffDans les cages les mieux gard\u00e9es
\n\ufeffS\u2019entred\u00e9vorent les id\u00e9es
\n\ufeffSans que jamais meure leur faim.<\/p>\n
Changer ! Monter ! est la r\u00e8gle la plus profonde.
\n\ufeffL\u2019immobile pr\u00e9sent n\u2019est pas
\n\ufeffUn point d\u2019appui pour le compas
\n\ufeffQui mesure l\u2019orgueil du monde.<\/p>\n
Que t\u2019importe la sagesse d\u2019antan qui va
\n\ufeffDistribuant, comme des palmes,
\n\ufeffLes victoires s\u00fbres et calmes,
\n\ufeffTon r\u00eave ardent vole au del\u00e0 !<\/p>\n
Il faut en tes \u00e9lans te d\u00e9passer sans cesse,
\n\ufeff\u00catre ton propre \u00e9tonnement,
\n\ufeffSans demander aux dieux, comment
\n\ufeffTon front r\u00e9siste \u00e0 son ivresse.<\/p>\n
Ton \u00e2me est un d\u00e9sir qui ne veut point finir ;
\n\ufeffEt tes chevaux de l\u2019impossible,
\n\ufeffDu haut des monts inaccessibles,
\n\ufeff\u2014 Eux seuls \u2014 la jetteront dans l\u2019avenir.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"annee":[457],"poems-book":[693],"poemes-theme":[],"poete":[654],"class_list":["post-15299","poemes","type-poemes","status-publish","hentry","annee-457","poems-book-les-forces-tumultueuses","poete-emile-verhaeren"],"yoast_head":"\n
