Antonella Anedda

1955 / Rome

[July, Night]

That evil may decompose like the hamster buried in a shoebox in the garden's earth.

That the fright destined for others come to me tonight.
I see her, this woman who for hours stared at the tv
on and now screams at another body in twilight
immobile in the colorless armchair.
