LA QUINTA DIMENSIONE.

Scoprirsi
a rubare emozioni
da cuori travagliati
studiando riflessi di luna
sul fondodi un vecchio bicchiere,
trattenendo il respiro
per poter udire
il proprio pulsare.
Vivere nella quinta dimensione,
con un piede nella porta:
un foglio di carta e una matita.

Osmosi d’idee,
travaso di belle parole:
Un’altra poesia si è reincarnata.

THE FIFTH DIMENSION

To find yourself
stealing emotions
from troubled hearts
studying moon reflections
on the bottom
of an old glass,
with bated breath
so as to hear
your heart beat.

Living in the fifth dimension,
with a foot in the door:
a sheet of paper
and a pencil.

Osmosis of ideas,
transfer of beautiful words:
Another poem was reincarnated.

This poem is from “Sunny Days and Sleepless Nights”
