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

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

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

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

Stretto dentro me

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

Wisdom
*
wisdom can be found
in forgetting
love is stitched on a
white canvas
an array of colors
red for bleeding
is an illusion to the eyes
it’s calm blue deep
within
and forgiveness
may be a life raft
.

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

Ceneri
Sundays are dedicated to Italian Poetry

Una riga,
dentro una volta c’eravamo noi.
Ceneri
negli angoli di una stanza buia.
La notte
attendo che mi si racconti l’amore.

Words
*
may my smile
be forever loving
as I play in life
new roles and adjust
words as a tight dress
may wind clothe me
forever changing
just that loving smile
let that one survive

Sorrido

provo un poco alla volta
a cancellarle tutte queste
rughe che mi hai dato ci
credevo felici ci credevo
