slowing down
my thoughts like
a hand to stop
.
a wild river yet
.
that split second
is still water to
my thirsty heart

slowing down
my thoughts like
a hand to stop
.
a wild river yet
.
that split second
is still water to
my thirsty heart
.
*
the new territory
I found myself on
.
this not knowing
all I could know
.
waiting long days
molding thoughts
.
making the dark
ones captive
.
feeling your body
changing under
your finger tips
.
*
I place my steps
orderly
in front of me
.
the gravel sounds
sending approval
.
seeking a way to put
myself
in focus as I move
.
.
*
strength coming
and going as some
one visiting me
in fact living
somewhere else
faith that I wish
as the largest
boulder not
to be moved
away
.

.
accade che si abbassi
.
la vista come un telo lattiginoso
ventiquattro o trentasei ore e vivo
.
d’altro non combatto, sento, annuso
e le ore scandite hanno il loro sapore
.
lento e dolce di chi è cieco di bianco
di chi non sa di chi crede che
.
anche stavolta risalirò il sangue
per guardare di nuovo fuori
.

sight lowering
.
it comes as a milky cloth
twenty-four or thirty-six hours and I
.
live of something else I do not fight
I feel I smell and each hour has its taste
.
slow and sweet of who is blinded by white
of who doesn’t know yet believes that
.
this time too I will ride up the blood
to look outside once more
.
