I wish I'd
Never been in there.
In the wind that opened me
(chased me)
I chased another page
(in the air)
that became, like me,
an inviolated
unnecessary thing.
And yet I could have changed
his story. Improvise it.
Inside me the joy, the sibylline
understanding that save us,
inside me the wish
for waiting (inside me)
inside me our story.

Inside me.

Inside me the joy,
the silent road
with no way out.
Don't go. Don't go.
Once upon no time...
