Haiku #3302

There's at least one thing
Wastelands are better than:
Emptiness is death.

Haiku #3300 & #3301

3300
Trascorro i giorni
Imparando a bluffare,
Dissimulare.

3301 [3300 bis]
Trascorro i giorni
Imparando a bluffare
A respirare.

Haiku #3298 & #3299

3298
We’re walking in time
While time walks all over us,
And our mortal coils.

3299 [3298 bis]
We’re walking in time
While time walks all over us,
Wearing, tearing us.

Haiku #3297

I sort thoughts in rhyme
Trim the meter for no dime.
   - Such mumbo-jumbo.

Haiku #3296*

Life is not too long
So work towards happiness
Make your dreams come true.

* For this haiku I'm borrowing words from a wise, dear friend that I hope to see again very soon. Thank you, Pui.

Come a Faenza

Oggi gli opposti coesistono.
Vive nel ricordo una grande gioia
e un grande dolore mi attraversano,
collidono agli antipodi del giorno.
Non mi strappano, mi svuotano.
Prive di sogno le mie mani sfaccendate,
Pesanti, immobili icone di stupore
Che qualcuno mi ha lasciato in grembo
Calde, ma familiari come estranei
In metropolitana accanto a te,
Troppo stanchi e sudati per spostarsi;
Quelle che avete sono quasi carezze
così intime, ma involontarie, o soltanto
sbadate, smemorate d’ogni senso
obliterate ai tornelli, controllate
da uomini in divisa combattuti
tra tunnel affolati e prati verdi.

Anch’io vorrei essere altrove.
Vorrei abbandonare queste blande
Lande tormentate dagli estremi.
Ma è ostinato il cuore e
Non si strappa, non si ferma,
Mi abbandona senza traccia
Senza più nessuna faccia
Né la forza di provare
Anche solo a immaginare
Di aver dentro il petto un centro
Puro, forte e d’improvviso
Avere qualunque cosa serva
- Che sia rabbia, amore o pena -
A scacciare l’indolenza:
Vorrei proprio farne senza.

Aphorism #22

Losing your faith in gods is to be gladly welcome.
Losing your faith in people is quite disheartening.

Haiku #3293

Cerco una casa
A desideri infranti,
Ad altri pianti.

U.S.


Io, bomba a orologeria,
Senza  fili colorati da troncare
O alcun modo di annullare questo conto
Che alla rovescia mi divora in ogni istante,
Vomita vita incongrua e sfinita - non c’è 
Pranzo a bilanciare la pecunia, soltanto
Goffo incedere di passi strascicati
A prolungare agonie già programmate
Già sfasciate, col rumore delle scarpe;
Le trascina un’oblio impaziente, incappucciato:
È lui soltanto che non ti ha abbandonato mai;
Ha liberato i tuoi due polsi incatenati
A far danni in anni, pochi e striminziti
Ma ritornano le piaghe sulle braccia
Ferme più per dolore che per acciaio.
Già tintinnano gli ultimi tuoi  giorni che mai 
Davvero hanno dimenticato quel cordone:
Sai, l’ombelico di ogni fine è qui dentro noi
Nell’incedere mortale, quasi a noia,
Da vita a Stige senza ritorno, se non
In sguardi in fuga da quelli di aguzzini
Indifferenti come silenzi e addii,
Muti come spalle che non torneranno
Che si allontanano senza alcun suono.
Non sboccia alcun senso su questa torta
O luce da spegnere sperando,
Solo un altro passo inutile
Solo un’altra notte in bianco.
Finirà presto il viaggio:
Non ho più lacrime
Non hanno senso.
Ho detto addio
E ti amo
Troppo,
Sai?

Haiku #3286 & #3287

#3286
Emptiness feels good
When life feels unbearable
When you need silence.


#3287 (variation on #3286)
Emptied of all sounds
The nights become bearable.
Silence be my roof.
