Potrò mai perdonare
a te che giri in casa
con la vestaglia unta
di macchie di dolore
di avermi allattato
al fiume del tuo male
stampandomi sul viso
l'angoscia e il suo colore.
Potrò mai perdonare
a te che giri casa
fiero nei tuoi ricordi
di libertà passata
di avere contrastato
la mia spina dorsale
per paura che io
non ti venissi uguale
Potrò mai perdonare
al vostro amore stanco
il piacere segreto
di una notte lontana
che mi ha sbattuto
in un mondo extravaginale
senza nemmeno chiedersi
se preferissi nascere
o la morte gloriosa
di un aborto illegale.
Potrò mai perdonare
a te ragazzo magro
tutti i pugni sul muso
che mi hai dato per noia
o per aiutarmi a crescere
o per raddrizzarmi il naso
o per vedermi piangere
proprio nel mio cortile.
Potrò mai perdonarti
amico per sei anni
di avermi ascoltato
con un orecchio solo
il tuo tradimento nero
fine del nostro mondo
con cui sei diventato
un bel fascista biondo.
Potrò mai perdonarvi
amici tutti quanti
l'amore e l'amicizia
che non mi avete dato
e questo mio sangue fragile
il mio povero disastro
la colpa ed il dolore
di non esser mai stato
per nessuno di voi
nemmeno un fratellastro.
Potrò mai perdonare
a te ragazza piccola
il bacio che hai preferito
gettare dal balcone
quel bacio che non mi hai
voluto regalare
nemmeno il giorno prima
della rivoluzione.
Potrò mai perdonare
a te ragazza grande
di avermi adoperato
per le tue gelosie
a te e alla tua città
quel tramonto di vento
in cui sono partito
felice di bugie.
Potrò mai perdonare
a voi mie poche donne
di avermi sempre usato
solo per stare bene
come un unguento dolce
che asciuga una ferita
aperta di paura
come un liquore amaro
che è però digestivo
e digerisce la vita.
Potrò mai perdonare
al Dio che non esiste
di avere rovinato
la mia adolescenza
Seduto su una pila
immensa di riviste
di donne nude prova
della sua inesistenza.
Potrò mai perdonare
alla gente per bene
di avere amareggiato
le mie bandiere rosse
e di avere deriso
sui muri della mia gioia
l'immagine di lenin
che parla alla sua gente
Potrò mai perdonare
a me stesso la mia rabbia
immensa e tempestosa
crudele come un mare
che travolga le navi
e affoghi i pescatori
che trovino il coraggio
di volerlo tentare
un mare che le loro donne
non sapran perdonare.
Potrò mai ringraziarti
compagno sconosciuto
per il vino che hai offerto
senza chiedermi il nome
senza informarti troppo
di dove ero venuto
di quanto sangue usciva
dalla mia situazione.
Potrò mai ringraziare
a te compagno negro
per il "who love you?"
che mi hai voluto regalare
come una sicurezza
che la nostra differenza
era un motivo in più
per doverci parlare.
Potrò mai ringraziarvi
compagni sconosciuti
disponibili sempre
ad offrire amore e vino
sperduti in questo mondo
non a grandezza d'uomo
e nemmeno di donna
e neanche di bambino
provincia di una vita
che dovrà pur finire.
Potrò mai ringraziarvi
compagni a venire
