Alberi dipinti di rosso nel quadro
che fisso davanti al mio letto
di una stanza d'albergo che vedo
esser sempre quella da un pezzo
come la strada che da casello a casello
mi ricorda di quando m'ero perso
una nave ormai senza nocchiero
ed un cielo nient'altro che nero
Luce che si intensifica veloce
e che allunga la mia ombra sul muro
unica cosa di cui sono sicuro
e che mi porto da sempre qui dietro
Mi riflette per quello che vedo
non ha voce e nemmeno un segreto
mentre io come un pezzo di vetro
resto fermo ne avanti ne indietro
E siamo nati forse solo per curiosità
come animali da circo in cattività
e stare in piedi è un equilibrio di precarietà
forse un azzardo una formalità
Mani una per lato e sotto due piedi
due occhi due orecchie ed un naso
e milioni di odori e colori
ed in gabbia solo cuore e polmoni
come donne ormai senza attenzioni
come sordi attirati dai suoni
scopare è un modo per sentirsi vivi
e non conta poi tanto se muori
