outdoor swim
diamonds
in her hair
Advertisements
stolen kisses…
stolen kisses
under the wisteria tree
our crown jewels
dried figs
the last time
you held me
trail of wildflowers
her barrette
abandoned
muddy footprints
new ways
of thinking
caressing…
caressing her hair
I sing a lullaby
she won’t remember
dementia
our family tree
collects dust
above the horizon…
above the horizon
birdsong waits
for an open window
sopra l’orizzonte
il canto degli uccelli aspetta
una finestra aperta
translation by Elisa Allo
a change in wind
after the drought
a kiss
cambio di vento
dopo la siccità
un bacio
translation by Eufemia Griffo
