in cerca, con i suoi uncini, di qualcosa da amare.


Mi terrorizza questa cosa scura

Le nuvole passano e si disperdono.

Sono quelli i volti dell’amore, quelle pallide irrecuperabilità?

È per questo che agito il mio cuore?»

Sylvia Plath, nata oggi

iosonorockmaballoiltango:

Dopo l’ululato di un animale.

      Dopo il tuono. Dopo il corno.

                Dopo il canto di una donna di montagna

                         c’è il silenzio e l’aria vuota.

                               Poi ci sei tu.


Ascolti. Il tuono chiama.

“My soul is a hidden orchestra; I know not what instruments, what fiddle strings and harps, drums and tambourines I sound and clash inside myself. All I hear is the symphony.”
