Les amantes

Will a day come when I will not belong to you anymore?

Will my hair forget about the tenderness of your touch, my nose lose the memory of your essence, my eyes cease to detect you amongst strangers in the crowd?

That night. That moment. When our breaths merged into a waterspring.

Planets and gods turned to us, the wind stopped its run on our window, and a dog down the street raised its ear.

It was our gift to the world, our little, unfortunate love. Nobody will remember it, we had no witnesses nor patrons.

Only these walls and our feet know how tender and meaningless it was.

Once upon a time

Once I wanted to be the greatest

No wind or waterfall could STALL me

And then came the rush of the flood

The stars at night turned DEEP to dust

Melt me down into big black armour

Leave no trace Of grace Just in your honor

Lower me downTO CULPRIT SOUTH

Make 'EM WASH A SPACE IN TOWN FOR THE LEAD

AND THE DREGS OF MY BED

I'VE BEEN SLEEPING

Lower me down, PIN ME IN

Secure the grounds For the later parade

Once I wanted to be the greatest

TWO FISTS OF SOLID ROCK WITH BRAINS THAT COULD EXPLAINAny feeling

Lower me down, PIN ME IN

Secure the groundsFOR THE LEAD AND THE DREGS OF MY BED

I'VE BEEN SLEEPINGFor the later parade

Once I wanted to be the greatest

No wind or water fall could STALL me

And then came the rush of the flood

The stars at night turned DEEP to dust

[Cat Power, The Greatest]

The world fascinates me

[Jim Larimer, Lady with Red Hair]

Anche quello visto attraverso gli occhi chiari della donna che oggi stava seduta sotto gli alberi del giardino, una ciotola bianca sul tavolino di plastica, gli occhiali a goccia che scivolavano sul naso.

Mi parlava del disegno cosmico immanente che ci unisce tutti, le nostre voci come espressione di un'unica identità, il dubbio sull'esistenza del caso.

Questa donna ama i colori chiari, i sapori vegetali e le luci che si spengono a mezzanotte nella piazza sotto casa sua. E' stata in India, è stata a Treviso, e oggi è stata nella mia giornata. L'ho accolta con curiosità, benevolenza, forse un pizzico di affetto.

Di giorno parla e scrive di guerre e politica. Di notte pensa e scrive di misticismo e trasmigrazione delle anime. In estate va al mare, legge libri e alle quattro fa il bagno.

Il mondo mi affascina. Il mondo è perfetto.

Fiat Saltatio

E la donna invento' la danza.
[Marie Chouinard, Le sacre du printemps]

Ask the stars

<<You entered the Sex, Drugs, and Rock and Roll phase of your long-term cycle late last year, and you'll be in that zone until January of 2009. That means you have been and will continue to be tempted with triple-intense opportunities to explore the frontiers of passion, find out about alternative modes of consciousness, and expand your capacity for lyrical release. So how is that working for you? Are you taking maximum advantage of all the life-changing experiments these adventures offer without being turned inside-out by the emotional risks they entail? Everything depends on your skill in using unruly gifts. >>

It must have been love
