(paintings by contemporary painter Sandro Arrigoni)
All is silent
I look around and all is silent:
waves do not make noise while
shatter the rock
spray the eyes of white foam.
I look around and all is silent:
s'ingrigisce the sky,
the flashes are interwoven through the clouds,
but I do not feel their enthusiasm.
I look around and all is silent:
dark double-breasted, tight-fitting evening gowns
disappear with deafening silence
like ghosts in the fog.
I look around and all is silent:
I hear the noise of life
panting along the streets of downtown ,
screams echoing from the walls
of old abandoned buildings.
But I only hear my soul
yelling, rebels, beats down
against the walls of his prison,
around while everything is silent.
Gaetano Gulisano
