PAPIER MÂCHÉ CURTAINS
Massimiliano Badiali
PAPIER MÂCHÉ CURTAINS
Opaque in horizon
Equally dressed of same colours
In confused party
Fall worn
Carton mâché curtains
By a false uproar
On our guilty appearances
On the glass windows of the night
Wind the residues of
Confused and scratched memories
Like the arrows of blood in wheat.
Far, later
The lights will put out
In the cities stage
Theatre of mankind.
MIMESIS
In the mouth of flock
Mud and vinegar . I spat
But I havent ever died.
Of a widowed divinity
I feel
Of far flame
The opened rebellion
Intact shell
I detest,
but by mimetic and social clothes
I dress
My existential vertigo.
Of my blood
It is just remained
Inner cries
Of nausea
And in human comedy
Loath or militant
I feign!
Inside,
I havent stained
Of the pain
The purity.
