Un tuo sogno. La scheda del browser aperta sul solito nero. Nel messaggio una domanda: "hai sentito quello che è successo a Coldsnap?" Nell’ultimo intervento sul mio blog, una foto di due donne anziane che camminano dentro a un parco, in una foto distorta, come riflessa in uno specchio ricurvo. Nel testo del post una frase “… un’immagine vaga in lontananza… ” come se io stessi per raggiungerle. Chiami mia madre per sapere cosa mi è successo, e lei: “eh sì, il povero Alberto si è innamorato.”. Mi spiace che tu ti sia spaventata. In passato, ci sono stati attimi in cui mi è capitato di pensare “che momento perfetto, che spettacolo meraviglioso. Potrei morire ora e sarei soddisfatto”. Ma era solo un mio ragionare per iperboli. Non mi lancio quindi in sperimentali ed ingenue interpretazioni, ma sono solo contento di essere stato il “protagonista assente” dei tuoi pensieri. Mi chiedi: “da uno a quindici quant'è che sto male di mente io?”
Che spranga la notte della porta col suo braccio di piuma E la stanza da incubi elude col suo passeggiare Venne da me dissennata Dorme nel truogolo stretto e cammina nella polvere E rapito alla fine nelle sue braccia dalla luce [D.Thomas] |

MARILLION - BITTER SUITE
Not the regal creature of border caves
But the poor, misguided, directionless familiar
Of some obscure Scottish poet
The mist crawls from the canal
Like some primordial phantom of romance
To curl, under a cascade of neon pollen
While I sit tied to the phone like an expectant father
Your carnation will rot in a vase.
II. Lost Weekend
A train sleeps in a siding
The driver guzzles another can of lager
To wash away the memories of a Friday night down at the club
She was a wallflower at sixteen
She'll be a wallflower at thirty four
Her mother called her beautiful
Her daddy said, "A whore".
III. Blue Angel
The sky was Bible black in Lyon
When I met the Magdalene
She was paralysed in a streetlight
She refused to give her name
And a ring of violet bruises
They were pinned upon her arm.
Two hundred francs for sanctuary and she led me by the hand
To a room of dancing shadows where all the heartache disappears
And from glowing tongues of candles I heard her whisper in my ear
"'J'entend ton coeur"
I can hear your heart
IV. Misplaced Rendezvous
It's getting late, for scribbling and scratching on the paper
Something's gonna give under this pressure
And the cracks are already beginning to show
It's too late
The weekend career girl never boarded the plane
They said this could never happen again
So wrong, so wrong
This time it seems to be another misplaced rendezvous
This time, it's looking like another misplaced rendezvous
With you
The parallel of you, you
V. Windswept Thumb
On the outskirts of nowhere
On the ringroad to somewhere
On the verge of indecision
I'll always take the roundabout way
Waiting on the rain
For I was born with a habit, from a sign
The habit of a windswept thumb
And the sign of the rain
It's started raining
ALTRI ECHI LONTANI
IQ
Belly first, unrehearsed,
I’m thrown from all I’ve known
A silhouette set among the
badlands paved with stone
Photographs, fingerprints,
fragile refugee
Higher rise fire in the sky society
Can I hold on, can I believe in
All the things you are?
There’s no sane in,
chaos reigns in Subterranea
Cadillac heart attack,
back of this beyond
Pusher king, TV queen,
accommodating blonde
At Traitor’s Gate while you
wait gender reassigned
The blindfold leads the blind
Can I hold on? I cannot count them
All the things you are
Were I stronger I’d hold out longer
in Subterranea
Without the walls,
comfort is freezing in my veins
And caught within chemical rain
My dreams have turned against me
And fatally have fenced me in
Above me cold light
and below me over all
The time I‘ve lost, how can I know?
So I keep forgetting
what I am half recalling
On a bed of fallen flowers
Hold me now
as I was held before
Powerhouse, scared vows,
trigger happy punk
Driven by hidden eyes
and figure hugging junk
Heaven knows if I’m close,
am I unreleased?
If I’m in hell I may as well
be famine to the feast
Can I hold on, can I belong to
All the things you are?
There’s no sane in,
chaos reigns in Subterranea
