Il volo di Pindaro

The strange, weird evolutions of the night - staring at the Moon, up on the roof - dreaming and weeping...

The day is dying, the Moon is rising, and in my pain I'm diving. It really does not matter, it is an obscure stream of consciousness, it's cold, so cold, and my heart seems to be lazy, I love being so hazy. I saw you crazy, dead and crawling, sweeping to the top of the mountain, I can distinguish no colour, no feeling, no pain, no joy, no man and no woman, nothing ordinary tonight, just me and the mighty Moon watching me, spying me, seducing me, making love to me. Falling into me. A rape, under my eyes, is about to come. A new victim is about to be taken to Hell, where demons and witches wait for their meal to have. A raging beggar is creeping along the dirty, murderous streets and I can do nothing else than staring at him, for a very little while, expecting him to be found dead by a policeman the following chilly, dark morning .... dirty life for a dirty existence, a silly man having been with silly women after having lead beautiful dr eams of eternal visions, now a mere memory of what could have been but never been......... Loud, strident rumour of a flat tyre zig-zagging from left to right, then from right to left, now to the centre, now... to... a huge, overwhelming wall... now from life to... death...! The ambulance syren screams its sheer drama, while this night is to send its very last goodbye to the disillusioners and disilluded, to those who have fighted, those who have died in name of glory, those we will never see anymore, those... only those........ and only me, keeping listening to the rain heavily falling to the ground, I hear you but you can't hear me, I can hear the desperate crying of a young lady just been left by his lover... her own tragedy, in a night full of tragedy..... who is gonna miss, the next time I will open my eyes, ears and soul to the night?.......who... and when.... just do not want to know.......... I'm merely an infinitive wedge of other thou sand wedges of the mosaic, almost undistinguishable, just want to be shadow of myself, waiting for the next tiny ray of light..... waiting for my pain to run away... and never come back..... but sure she will.......
