Remember

 

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07JL32VL5

Remember

 

Remember

 you are just passing through

the Earth

and  the world does not belong to you

but it's your body

that belongs to Earth;

Remember

that love has to be built

slowly,

while  passion

burns quickly everything;

Remember

that every man

has its own dignity

and deserves all respect.

Remember

of those who  sowed

when you reap;

Remember

to greet the sun

every time he gets up

and every time it sets down.

Remember

that you are light

which illuminates

the darkness of eternity.

Echoes from a sad soul-Volume 5

 


The Flesh of God

Who were those women

Who screamed against God,

 against Manhood?

And I,

facing the world just then,

who was I?

Was I with women,

with God

or with mankind?

 Why do I hear now the cry

  Of those who did not see the Light

  like a guilt that oppresses my soul? 

  But who filled in the gaps

of the innocent dead?

  Why do not we understand yet

they were the flesh

of God?!

  And we all carry on,

  indifferent to the signs

of His suffering!

The Slacker

 

Maybe I was a slacker

Ever since as a boy

I dreamed of traveling around the world;

Yes, I had to be just a slacker

Because I never thought

To spend my time on earth

To make money, to seek power,

to become someone successful.

Just as a good slacker

I never even gave great importance 

To appearance, elegance,

luxury cars.

And when I was looking for truth

In the light of dawns and sunsets,

believing the poets

are best men in the world

And when I dreamed of flying

I certainly was a slacker.

Then, when I chose to rent to the school

My bachelor's degree

Convinced that our society

needs models of freedom,

imagination,  ideas,  respect,

proposals, and passions;

and when I couldn’t bear

hundreds of erupting volcanoes

of increasing  hormones

and I let myself be overwhelmed

then I was definitely a slacker.

And I certainly was a slacker

Even when, according to law,

I preferred love, dedication, affection

that no one counts in the

Gross Domestic Product!

when I finally chose

to consider more important

To be, better than   have,

To think, better than doing,

Meditating, rather than acting,

Even then I was a slacker.

And now that I've discovered

 the best part of life,

That nobody can take  away from me,

I persist and I am still a real slacker!

The mistery of my love

The Ballad of my mysterious love

I

I have never loved,

   since loved me never

the women I loved

and I didn't love

those who tried to love me!

 

II

I firstly pursued

Impossible loves,

and when the overwhelming body

 forced me to love,

then I loved,

but it was not love;

 it was surely sweet discovery of pleasure,

flesh into flesh, fire with fire,

fury subsided into the abyss of life;

but it was not love.

III

Neither was love

the spasm which I waited

to see the air colored  

by your forms,

when it was enough for me

to feel your presence

ethereal and impalpable,

although present,

yet not mine

and it was not love.

IV

I'm still in search of you, sublime, decanted love.

Who are you fleeting present of God?

Are you for all of us or just for a few?

Do you really exist?

Are you a catcher of   hearts and reason?

Real or unreal?

Liar or truthful?

V

Still I'm seeking of you,

poignant love

unveiled eyes,

flying mate,

slave and mistress,

mother and lover,

mystery of life!

That's my song

 

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07H44DYF7

That’s my song

 

The first time

I dreamed the Major Thirteen

I was just over sixty.

I was dreaming of falling down to sea

With no parachute.

Before to splat the water

I asked the wind

To appease my drop:

So did the wind.

And I started singing.

Say the fishermen

Along the Cornwall coast

If they hear a song

At windy full moon nights.

That’s might be my song.

Please pray for me


Those shots

the 13th may 1981

at St Peter Sq

saw me 

cold witness of time

but I cried for you

later on 

when I saw you

trembling under the weight

of your Cross;

please pray for me

among the Angels

your existing is the brightest

proof of God's existence!

Nostalgic soul

 


https://www.amazon.it/dp/B0181HCMKY

Exile as a fugitive

I crave my eternal home!

Call me in your home

Nostalgia soul

‘cause I’m a suffering tree

Far from his own land!

Call me at your home

For I haven’t  got enough bread

And drinking wine

In the arid table of my life!

I am an exiled fugitive

Who longs for his eternal home.
