And the color of your eyes entangled among my fingers

And the color of your eyes entangled among my fingers

And the color of your eyes
entangled among my fingers

[ Berenice, it's not for our desires but our design, that we all fall apart ]

~~~

Ed il colore dei tuoi occhi
impigliato tra le mie dita

[ Berenice, non è per i nostri desideri ma per i nostri disegni, che noi tutti finiamo distanti ]

Time doesn't fly

Time doesn't fly

Time doesn't fly
it skips seconds like an heartbeat

and we perceive these absences
always strained to turn around
in a timeless lack of something

I don't sign agreements with time
the one created by men -
unable to come back
it only carries away

Impatient
it tears fruits down from trees
and covers them with blossoms as soon as it can

It repaints all around
scraping certainties away
as old wallpapers
as thoughts not brave enough

Time is shameless, is brazen -
Yesterday
was ripping habits off of my hands -
Today
has given me the feeling
I'll have time enough.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Time doesn't run
it skips seconds like an heartbeat

e noi percepiamo queste assenze
costretti a voltarci sempre indietro
in un'eterna mancanza di qualcosa.

Non ho fiducia del tempo,
di quello creato dagli uomini -
Incapace di tornare indietro
porta solo via

Insofferente
tira giu i frutti dagli alberi
e li ricopre di fiori piu presto che può

Ridipinge tutto intorno
scrostando via certezze
come vecchi parati
come pensieri non coraggiosi abbastanza

Il tempo è spudorato, sfacciato -
Ieri
strappava abitudini via dalle mie mani -
Oggi
mi ha regalato la sensazione
che avrò tempo a sufficienza.

Cherry desires

Cherry desires


The summer of the cravings
eventually came.
Like cherries,
longings were blushing cheeks -
Like cherries,
I couldn't have enough.

As there's no conception of sufficiency in me
unless the weight
and the chains,
both
ineptly
contrived by men

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Desideri alla ciliegia

L'estate dei desideri
alla fine arrivò.
Come ciliegie,
bramosie arrossivano gote -
Come ciliegie,
non avrei potuto averne abbastanza.

D'altronde, non c'è concezione di sufficienza in me
a meno del peso
e delle catene,
entrambe
inopportunamente
create dagl'uomini

Dell'amore e del cuore

Dell'amore e del cuore

Ho preso l'amore
e l'ho appeso al cuore
senza fori o rumori
tantomeno timori.
Ho immaginato gioelli
chiuder cancelli
come fosser lucchetti
d'aprir senza ferretti

Ho speso ore
d'un raro ardore
assuefatte agli strappi
che, ahimè, furon prassi.
Ho perso l'accidia
come cavalli di frisia
mi attanagliava il petto
ora il solco è netto.

Non murerò vivi i tuoi tarli
d'altronde se parli
essi son fuori
non più dolori.
Aspetto la sera,
a maggio non c'era
era stata rubata
forse incastrata

l'aspetto di giorno
e colpevole stòrno
carezze di dita
dal corpo tuo Evìta
Ho dato a far questo
non perchè onesto
ma per protegger l'amore
e chiudere il cuore

per protegger l'amore e chiudere il cuore.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As for love and heart

I've harvested love
hung it on heart
without vents or clatters
not even feebleness.
I've fancied jewels
shuttering gates
like frail padlocks
hairgrips are needless

I've spent hours
of a rare ardour
inured to wrenches
which, alas, were praxis.
I've lost the sloth
like chevals de frise
was tormenting my chest
now the furrow is clear

I won't wall your demons
since if you speak
they are forth
ain't pains, no more.
I'm waiting the eve,
there wasn't in May
it had been thieved
maybe just choked

I'm waiting at day
while guilty I divert
grooves of caresses
from your body Evìta
I'm given do so
not 'cause 'm honest
but to ward the love
and shelter the heart

to ward the love and shelter the heart.

Brama luce

Brama luce

La donna nel mare
raccontava la quiete nella terra del fuoco.
Usava vestirsi d'azzurro e di nembi,
talvolta di miele e d'opale
di cui si nutriva ai vespri estivi
guardando negli occhi il cielo
senza lasciarsi dalle nuvole toccare

Distesa piano
misurava le onde e vagliava tormente
Raccoglieva e risospirava tra i venti
i lamenti di quella dirimpetto gente -
anzitutto di quelli impauriti dal mare
imprigionati tra fuoco e acqua
non sapevan più cantare

Se quello che vedi non è ciò che senti
e ciò che senti
ha solo il sapore di un tatto ottuso
Brama luce -
luccichii d'argento, riflessi scintillanti
palpebre socchiuse, riverberi splendenti

Accecata di luce -
la donna trasse nuovamente respiro.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The woman in the sea
was telling the hush in the land of the fire
She used to dress of azure and nimbus,
sometimes of honey and opal
of which she was feeding on at the summer's vespers
looking at the sky's eyes
not by the clouds being touched

Lying gently
was measuring waves, weighing blizzards
She was collecting and re-sighing over the winds
the moans of the overseas people -
foremost from the ones unable to swim
imprisoned between water and fire
they weren't singing anymore

If what you see is not what you feel
and what you feel
has just the taste of a witless touch
Yearn light -
silver blazes, sparkling reflections
ajar eyelid, shining reverberations

Dazzled of light -
the woman got breathe, again.
