12.
Cloud have covered the whole
day slowing down my rhythm
I walk as barefoot on carpet
placing words carefully
dozing off a bit hanging
poetic moments behind my eyes

A Petal – California Notebooks
*
a petal can lead
to an expanse of flowers
of poetry and lightness
surprisingly colored
to an internal suburban world
projecting me with telescopic
vision toward the earth I who
believes to be above it
within not yet under
I who believe and know no more
I who believes evermore that
I’m and nothing else matters
who loves to live an atom
at a time my own explosion
.

This poem appears in the first volume of the California Notebooks.

Radio – California Notebooks
A tiny taste of the radio interview I did in Milan, Italy, two weeks ago. The first poems is in English.
Un piccolo assaggio video dell’intervista all’Onda di Radio Navigli di Milano del 21-6-18. La seconda poesia è in italiano.
Text below/Testi a fondo pagina

I’ve seen rain
stepping on the sea
incessantly tapping
not able to carve
ancient holes
as on rocks
because it
was welcomed
it was welcome
*
ho visto la pioggia
camminare sul mare
bussava senza sosta
incapace di scavare
buchi antichi
come nelle rocce
perchè era
accolta
era ben accolta

Adding Notes
*
I didn’t dislike
school most days
yet I was anxious
each day to go home
to have lunch while
reading – to then take a small
break after the meal – under
the sun on the balcony
reading again underlining
my dreams to come
adding notes to my
future days

Nata in sogno
Sunday’s posts are dedicated to Italian Poetry
*
vorrei essere casa
nel deserto
spalancata al nulla
in attesa
vulnerabile al vento che
mi riempie
di nulla
di sospiri di terre lontane
nata in sogno scrivo
e svanisco

The Birds Trills
*
just before
I breathed in I was
breathing out
I run to this
place to be with you
you seem aloof
to life or to give
anything out afraid
even to receive
I play with the birds
trills as people rush
home from work

Un po’ di poesia
Sunday’s posts are dedicated to Italian Poetry
*
non voglio
che nessuno muoia senza
un po’ di poesia
un tono
d’amore o compassione
passione
ti auguro
l’urgenza di valicare
questa
soglia
mentre sei nella tua dimora una
bella pelle
desiderando che
arrivi quel tocco dall’alto
.

Ask Me Not
*
let me dance
as the millipede
with no thinking
ask me not to
quit nor to explain
turn the other side
if jealousy abides
inside as I praise the
sky as the dance floor

Preludio

non voglio
lasciare mai più
questo silenzio
questa pace che
ieri mi spaventava
preludio di cielo
come lo ricordo

Drops Of Sun
*
getting the usual
drops of sun
here
in the desert on
my joyful face
as I stretch a smile
over the very
blue sky a
silken scarf
to dance within

Split In Two
*
I’m split in two
by the desire to
sit and meditate
and travel madly
to new landscapes
travel nonetheless
new either way
yet the excitement
of moving on the territory
yet the serenity
of exploring the nearby

The Life of a Poet

the life of a poet

yourself so that poetry
may choose to visit you

Intervista TV LIVE
Sundays are dedicated to Italian Poetry. Today the recording of latest TV interview LIVE on an Italian TV Broadcast. The poems I read in Italian are showing with English text as well, freeze the frame to read it! Enjoy.
Oggi invece di una poesia in italiano abbiamo la registrazione della mia ultimissima intervista TV a SEILATV dove mi hanno chiesto di ritornare. Parliamo di poesia, di viaggi nell’anima come in Giappone, della fotografia di Alta Moda a Tokio e del Messico e di Frida Kahlo. Buona visione!

I Will Not
*
I will not
repeat what
flowers tell me
as I walk by
at sunrise
their opening
to daylight
exhaling joy
it will stay
as gentle breeze
compressed
in shells shapes
to the sides of
my curious head

Stretto dentro me
Sunday Poems are dedicated to Italian Poetry

sono rimasta senza
parole vero per una volta
ho trattenuto il fiato
stretto dentro me
unico appiglio rimasto
mentre ancora corro
