summer rain
speaking of photogenic

 

pioggia estiva
parlando di fotogenia

 

 

 

worm moon
dream listless

 

luna del verme
sogno svogliato

 

a dragonfly
in mating season
nothing is missing

 

una libellula
nella stagione degli amori
non manca nulla

 

 

a mosquito
seal the windows
call for backup

 

una zanzara
sigillate le finestre
chiama i rinforzi

crazy april
the first moon
collapses

aprile pazzo
la prima luna
collassa

 

 

black sheep
the intent of the bud
still sleeps

pecora nera
l’intento della gemma
dorme ancora

 

the crows caw
head down without
even a goodbye

i corvi gracchiano
a testa bassa senza
nemmeno dire addio

.

 

snake print
cowboy boots
night-owls shriek

stivaletti
texani pitonati
le civette stridono

 

the stars fade away
like water on the sand
in the shade

le stelle svaniscono
come l'acqua sulla sabbia
nell’ombra

 

lullaby
music box
shut up

ninna nanna
carillon
stai zitto
