Analysis of collapsing in the wind
collapsing in the wind
utterances of the riddles
of not sleeping
bloated inside the
burning woods
it was late in
the morning of spring time
the river banks somewhere in French
the river itself
there were something
besides from stones and white sand
the burning woods of
late evening in autumn
where the river banks
uttered a riddle of waking
landscape of gray stones and gray sand
bemused of obscured figures in Milan
i was in my marine
surplus jacket
it was late in the evening
of winter
there was something
besides from the
burning woods, in Amsterdam
the green eyes
and the blue eyes, looks so
loving, they uttered
the riddles of summer in Switzerland
but this time, a humor was moving
along with the threads of dreaming
humorous, descriptive, and
sentimental, maybe
because of the ages of attachment
collapsing body language
in Germany, together with
the riddles of the wind in Livigno
that troubled the beauty of
their friendship, oh
the burning woods
that was still burning! now
collapsing in the wind
and the obscured
figures in Milan
bloated inside the burning
woods
together with the dying spring
