I was here long before you know
On a timeline made of seconds
That never did nor do exist,
Crossing space a lot further
Than you could ever possibly conceive,
As measures deceive,
Light-years don’t begin to describe
The immensity … CONTINUE READING »
Harmless games
The baby was ecstatically happy
He had been given a toy gun, a cowboy hat,
It was his third birthday, no harm in that.
Parents were glad to see their child giggle
Pull the trigger shoot down his sisters
While … CONTINUE READING »

Colour vibration
Evolving human
Surrounded by colours,
Gentle grins provoking last
Enduring glances of suspicion,
‘What have they to smile?’
Unfamiliar green-carpet
Streets and glowing faces,
Sounds of unusual happiness
Inundating land, echoing
In the calm unsuffering seas.
Dark elegant suits knit… CONTINUE READING »
Make believe
She did not know,
Or so she thought.
She did not know,

un suono una luce un sapore un profumo, una carezza,

Nessuno di Noi può Respirare
I cieli grigi guaiscono mentre voci gemono per le strade
Quelli che un tempo erano sospiri appesi a Querce d’Angelo
Diventano canti trasportati dal vento in campi di cotone
Lodano il Signore raccogliendo la bambagia, ululano
Note blu, nell’attesa che … CONTINUE READING »

Crisalidi quiescenti attendono la loro aurora.

Svelando una oscura tela concepente colori
Uno spazio operoso rivela sublime onnificenza,… CONTINUE READING »

C’è un posto dove una scelta
Determina un impegno,
Un atto di fede per i credenti
Da ineluttabili istinti spinti a cercare,
Un covo primordiale,
Un estemporaneo atemporale rifugio, privo di pareti,
Tra vellutate montagne di smeraldo
Sotto alberi sfioranti … CONTINUE READING »
New spaces for new parents
I was officially born in the 17th century,
My homeland was England,
They conceived me in coffeehouses,
My parents were many.
I was officially born in the 17th century,
When the crowns of Scotland and England united,
When James VI, … CONTINUE READING »
