La Rugiada Nera

(2022)

The black dew. "It is poetry that yells out and claims the right to receive answers giving a sense to the trouble of growing up.There is pain, despair and shouted rage in the open yearning to return to an ideal bubble of childhood purity that the adult world offends, sullying it with mental superstructures and Heart aberrations, like a veil of black dew."

The black dew is a concept that wants to sully the purity of childhood in many ways.

From experiences to disappointed expectations.

As one grows up, everything becomes less crystal clear, less lucid, more blurred.

One enters the adult world with constructions and beliefs that are fragile, flimsy, made of dust. White becomes black.

In such a swirling and hectic world, at one point I said: enough!

I wanted to feel things as I did when I was a child and regain my experiences, sucking up their essence with all possible senses.

Feelings, emotions. Real and no longer evanescent.

ASPETTANDO

Fissando l'alba

in attesa di ieri.

Non preghi?

Tempesta di inquietudine.

Grido fino a morire di me stessa.

Notte sporca.

MISERIA

Imprigionate

da stupide favole,

le menti si contorcono

per non inciampare nel vuoto,

per placare il battito ansioso

di una vita senza Senso

aggrappate e avvinghiate

alla Suprema vetrificata finzione

dell'esistenza di Dio
