Days after you left
awakening with a strand
of your hair on my lips
Chest-deep in river water
sunburned shoulders redder than
the sting of the fire ants
Perfumed with sea spray
hair cascading off the bed
blond as hourglass sand
full moon
filling the eye
fully
to fully explore
a rustic rose
the frantic bee disappears
writing its story
on the strand --
a severed branch
EVEN NOW I DON’T UNDERSTAND
Even now I don’t understand
what exactly should be done first
while making love
From where should the touching begin
so that she gives in immediately?
It’s the same as writing a poem
From what line should the poem begin
so that it comes out good?

Look peacefully at the stars so high
And listen to the sweet song of the nightingales
And may beautiful women entertain you
And that your glass never be empty
Watch the passing by of the Moon.

Conosci il tuo paese
Out of countless tower-mouths
the bell’s chorus pours as magic
its bronze over the golden mountains
twisting, it ascends the mountain sides
fans out, like firework
becomes velvet-sound and errs
like early autumn snow
above the mirror of the lake
melts together
with a handful of yellowed pictures:
the village
the grey shale tower
the bronze of olden days.
