YOU REVOLVE AROUND A SHIPWRECK

 ***

You revolve around a shipwreck you wake up

in front of a wall, you have to go back, you were

not fated to pierce it or to blow it up, therefore

retreat and defeat you say your prayers, God

doesn’t read and you don’t know what’s the use

of so much suffering, of the persecutions

that are administered to you by the cannibals.

The martyrs say that the suffering has only one

goal: that one to open eyes, to awake the spirit

to know: you suffered therefore you understood

for this you endured the illness or the iniquity

or any other form of misfortune. That it makes

you a kinder man? Nonsense. He is kind the one

who was already kind. The suffering is useful

only for the knowledge and, apart from this,

she does nothing but poison the life.

The tranquillity comes from the thought that,

being a man, you are born under an unlucky star

and that all that you undertook, and all that

you are going to undertake will be cradled

by the bad luck and anyhow someday it will

fail. Every victory, let her be apparent, too

brings spiritual obnubilation with her.

The oblivion is what you are. Let us at least hope.

The eyes that believe that they invent the light

awaken the wind.
