Imbroglio
Embrace the void
Avoid to brace
Return to no womb
Turn left and then
go straight to hell
Follow the roles
of the major arcana
Leave all skeletons
in the armoir
Leave all the gates
opened and remove
yourself to another
kingdom.

Leisure
loneliness spreads
up to the eyes
loneliness creates
a thin layer
snow over eyes
and falls asleep.
the thread of time
of letters weaves.
all the poetry
it's pure voodoo
it's a way of healing
it's hard way
to inflict pain.

Pill and Contagion…
Before the contagion he was lost!
After the contagion he was lost!
It was not cured with pills,
not cured with intravenous,
he did not heal in verse or prose.
He was just lost!
During the contagion he was in love:
He raved, dreamed, castellated winds!

Empty Postcards
I will take you whenever you want
or not
I will take you whether you come
even if you don't know
the passwords…
I will take you where I want
want me to go to
Mars
Manhattan
Shangrila
I will unfurl flags
I will send
Cards
stamps
cuddles
Carbohydrates!

Words from several days...
There was a lake supported on crutches.
Black legs like geese.
Full of frights and with no
possibility of recreation in response.
Ring of spikes like a crown of thorns.
As per the cowardly character
who invaded the field with his tray…
Nothing had predicted such a dazzle!

say thirty three
say thirty
do not say anything
or say three
thirty three times three
it's nothing
that say you can
be used against you
again
not for the first
turn
in the first and in the last
days of the month
what is to be
twenty-eight
or twenty nine
still thirty
maybe thirty-one
but it will never arrive
at thirty-three
don't even say
thirty-three times
times three...

dormant poem
an exposed and sensitive nerve
possession that runs in the veins
like all invisible poison
a heavy and lazy body
tired and rhyming sonnet
river that runs against the current
dreams of castles in the sand
how was sleepy sonnet
a huge and burly god
hand of so few fencing

I am a woman
like any other woman
I’m not just any woman
Like every woman is not
I’m a unique woman
like any other woman
I’m not another woman
As is not any woman
I’m a diverse woman.
