angry

ok, I do not know what is going on

between you two or if anything is

going on at all

I hope I have not caused any trouble

but I need to be clear

angel, I have always tried to be honest

and direct with you do you remember?

I immediately wrote to you

when you entered the ‘game’

at the very beginning and since then I have

always tried to be honest

I do not know why you decided

to fool me with all those dates

and numbers, that was not nice at all 

especially after all the

things the three of us have been through

now I do not really feel like

talking to you

I am angry

and I am sorry if I was

a bit drastic in what I wrote

but I was really hurt

I could not believe it

and if you are still wondering

what I would like to do

it is to be with him

spend even only one night with him

and do you know what could happen?

well, we could even just stay in bed and stare

at each other all night long

or drink and talk about literature

I do not know

it does not have to be sex at any cost

I only know that what me and him

have is very special

do you know how he got my attention

the first time?

through my father’s death

(and please remember that this

is constantly in my mind, it is a huge loss

I still have not been able to deal with properly)

and in his marvellous way to do things

he mended some of the pain

I was suffering from

and caressed my heart

NOBODY

not even my brother or my best friends

could do that

and I will never ever forget it

angel, you have been very nice and romantic

and I cried when I listened to that song

but that was a beginning

I have already told you that

and when I wrote that poem for you

spending a whole day trying to find

the right words

you did not say anything

these kind of things

leave a mark

now it is late

now I need to be with him 

and what I am asking you

is a bit of respect

for me and him

thanks in advance 

ps - in case both of you were wondering if I am posting anything on the book full of faces, I am not, I am not posting things hidden from you, I just do not feel like being there much. If I post, it will be public. And one last thing, angel, there is going to be a cartoon of mine posted soon on the web, which has the term 'wings' in it, I drew it more than a month ago, it has nothing to do with you or us, just ot be clear.

lacrimemozioni

Tarantata, fonte loradelsalento.diocesilecce.org.

demone
amatissimo
il pensiero di te
anche
in questo giorno
appestato
ha saputo donarmi
un nuovo stato
di lacrimemozioni
oltre alle
molte escoriazioni
non so cosa
tu ora
voglia fare
ora che io
sono un mostro
infetto
non protetto
tradito
ferito
se ancora
desideri
vedermi
sappi che
il giorno
l'ho compreso
per il resto
sopravvivo
dinanzi
al peso
dell'assenza
della creatura
alata
da me
fagocitata

fattucchiera

Forest witch di Nerium Oleanders.

a me non piace

sentirmi

canzonata

specie se si tratta

di una persona 

alla quale

sono legata

non so quale sia

il motivo

del tuo prendermi in giro

angelo mio

ma è stato

un pugnalarmi

diritto

al petto

che ha ammazzato

la fanciulla

ilare e battagliera

e risvegliato

la fattucchiera

divorato

  Dead Angel by Deanse.

e l'angelo morì
divorato dalla sua
stessa bile
tramutatasi
in una
fanciulla
minuta
ma munita
di fauci
impressionanti
che presero
a staccare
la sua carne
a grossi morsi
frantumando
con violenza
e veemenza
anche le sue ossa
era egli stato
un pensiero soave
un forse
che
ad un tratto
divenne
un mai più

ambiguous

Carla Fracci in Giselle.

demon
angel
please do not think
that what I wrote
in tonight's chant
has anything to do
with you
or this blog
rereading it
I have noticed
some parts may
be ambiguous
and I changed them
my anger
has nothing to do with
you two
or this space
it has to do with the place
where I live
and the people
populating it
and the difficulty to
do some decent research
for a precarious scholar like me
so do not
pay much attention to it
please

research

Source mochacafe.net

research
useless
research

nobody cares
few understand

and
the provincial
site
where I live
kills every good
bite
of knowledge
and delight

it is the place
where
the incapable thrive
and
the capable die 

the battle continues
but don't ask me
to appreciate
that desolate region
as
I barely tolerate
its rotten legion

bad day

Mimicry by Remedios Varo.

Today has been a strange day

sorry I did not get your hint

demon

I have the feeling something

happened

but am not quite sure

what was exactly

I had a bad day

because of a project 

that did not go well

and am not

in a great mood

so forgive me

if I understood both of you

correctly

the day you suggest

is the day before

saint valentine
(or is it the day before that?)

please confirm

neither of them are ideal for me

but will try to get organised

I will not come to any event

do not want to recreate 

any surreal atmosphere

where we cannot talk

or interact

but will probably arrive

at dinner time

or even later

if you prefer

let me know

what time 

were you thinking of

and where

thanks

have a nice evening

love,

Nobody

in principio

 La sposa nella tempesta, foto di Heather Liebensohn.

in principio fu il dì
della settimana
a cui seguì
la data
l'ora e il luogo
della scampagnata
il mese
deve essere quello attiguo
ché l'attesa non può che
essere breve
per dare all'animo
un respiro lieve
se questo giuoco
vi ha tediato
facciamo fagotto
e lasciamolo nel passato

The Chariot

Among the Major Arcana, The Chariot, which is card number seven, is a peculiar and mystical card. It has to do with moving forward and, at the same time, with working to keep one's own inner and outer balance intact. It deals with courage, determination and danger, because it takes enormous courage to embark on a journey, as it takes a strong determination to doing it and an acute awareness that is can also be dangerous. But what is danger compared to the excitement of a journey!

Martha Graham in Imperial Gesture

Martha Graham in Imperial Gesture.

 

Martha Graham was one of the main representatives of modern dance, a type of concert dance born in Germany and the United States between the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth century. It incorporated different dance approaches and techniques that often focused on the torso and expressivity. It also struggled to be considered an art form, as it moved away from the concept of dance as entertainment, like ballet and vaudeville. New York was one of its main centres but finding spaces where to perform was not easy as many theatres housed plays or musicals during the week. That is why many modern dance concerts began to take place on Sunday, the “dark night”, the night during which theatres were supposed to be closed by a city law (it was also known as the Sabbath code).
