Mauro Montacchiesi

YOU ARE GOD, OH, LORD

You are God, 
Oh, Lord.
It is possible,
I know,
it is possible,
why not try to create
from this narrow dimension of life
one's own Hiltonian Shangri-La?
Just from those few square meters
in which one spends part of one's days,
where one collects
trophies of which memory one has no more
worn-out poems on worn-out scrolls.
I imagine a metaphysical carpet
thanks to which to navigate
among fantastic universes of quilted stars
among Eldorado of inlaid nuggets.
And there chase a diaphanous track
a path through the universe.
But then return to an old photo album
now obviously vintage
to faces now no longer recognizable
or who knows
that one no longer wants to recognize.
Still to smell the aroma
of a youth lost in time
is not a consolation
but one will be many
to smell this aroma
Violets? Cyclamens? Lily of the Valley?
Quien sabe.
Memories are beautiful and poignant
but one must return to the present
interacting with today's humans,
with one's self.
A poem is a relief
a viaticum.
Every morning that I wake up,
thank you,
Oh, Lord.
Please,
stay on the cross
it is a supplication
no matter how great your pain
you are God, 
Oh, Lord
it is a prayer. 
Do not come down
for you are the only strength
the only source of life.

 



Liebste Mandalena...Deine Übersetzung ist perfekt.
Deine empfindlichkeit eigentlich "spannend"!!!
Ich schätze mich glücklich, wenn Ich sinnvolle Seelen,

Das hilft mir, noch mehr Vertrauen und Hoffnung zu Haben!
