Italy is mine

I am on tour again - not the whole tour, of course, but as many gigs as I can. Above, The Smiths key ring I bought in a music shop in Dublin last year, the day before Morrissey's first concert of the 2025 Spring-Summer Tour. Below, my companion for this night trip: he is meant to be a cushion, but I am not sure I want him to put his arms around my neck: I would rather cuddle him instead. Well, after having a short nap before midnight, while we have left France and entered Bel

Above : 2026 UK & Europe t-shirt. Below: a little drawing made by me on my diary today, before flying away from Paris. Sing and Shine in Aarhus, Silver Boy! See You soon in Hamburg and in some other Countries. Edit: from the good side of Morrissey-solo (I mean, the informative one) the setlist of Morrissey's concert in Denmark (a bunch of classics I love and I haven't heard live yet) and a snippet of A Rush and a Push and the Land is Ours with Pier Paolo Pasolini on the back

Thank you, Morrissey, for confirming I was right, because I knew, I knew, I knew that you were and are still here in Paris. Picture taken by me... if only! I am joking, of course, but I know It's gonna happen Someday . Article by me, post from Morrissey Central with a picture of Morrissey taken today by an Unknown Creature near Notre-Dame of Paris . After Make-up is a Lie , released last month, the new single Notre-Dame is released today. Vera da Pozzo Paris, 6th February 2

It seems so long But two weeks Pass so quickly And I am strong And I am young And I am foolish And I am happy Vera da Pozzo Paris 1st February A. D. MMXXVI Below: resized image of a picture taken in Miami on 22d January by someone who had the chance to be there: I will edit my article when I find the name or the nickname of the photographer. I am very busy with the new cabaret project and I have plenty of ideas for my writings and drawings, but I am not on holidays and my day

Waiting for the end of the Murder that is Meat production and consummation, the UK has banned the cruel transport of living animals. Below, the post on Morrissey Central about this good news . These things take time, but... I know it's gonna happen someday. There are lesser and lesser carnivores, while the number of vegans and vegetarians constantly increases. Can you find the song quotes I put in my little post? Vera da Pozzo Paris, 24th January A. D. MMXXVI (C) Vera da Poz

Did They collect the letters for You? Are You reading them now, perhaps? Who knows? I am waiting, but in Far-Off Places, So Here is my Message to You: Three Words... Sing and Shine! Vera da Pozzo 22nd (in Hollywood) 23rd (in Paris) January 2026 Poem and article by me, of course. Morrissey will sing at the Hard Rock in Miami, Hollywood, FL, USA. I DO HOPE Morrissey will sing World Peace is None of Your Business tonight and/or (even better) when I see him again in Europe... S

As I am going to work, I have just the time to post my favourite artwork inspired by Saint Sebastian: the stunningly beautiful picture by the great Renaissance painter Antonello from Messina. I was a very young and extremely curious child who found the best nourishment in books, art and music, and I have always been fascinated by the iconography of Saint Sebastian, and Antonello's masterwork is my favourite because of Sebastian's stoic expression of resignation and His inner

I have just found on YouTube an interesting video about the music composed by Camila Grey for the new Morrissey's single and album title-track Make-up is a Lie . Thanks to Alex from Morrissey Unofficial Videos for posting on YouTube his collab with Sam from @theironbridge who is on IG, because, as I do not want IG & Co. , I cannot see his contents. I am not sure about who the Poet is (the hypothesis about Gertrude Stein do not convince me) and, by the way. I do not think M

A freezy, sunny Day In Père Lachaise: Just like an impromptu, As I had something to do In Place Gambetta, I took my time and Visited my Friends This Afternoon On the top of the Trees Tiny Birds were singing Their Happiness, telling That Spring is nearer And Oscar and Robbie Could hear their songs As the Sun warmed The Sphynx and the Gravestone above An Unexpected Meeting And a Nice Conversation With a Tourist from New York In front of Wilde's Tomb Vera da Pozzo Paris, 19th Ja

Thank God, and against all odds, I managed to finish my artwork on Wednesday evening, just in time for the collective exhibition in Paris. My drawings were ready the day before but, as I had to get up very early to go to work on Wednesday, I had to put up the whole artwork and write the message (which is also its title) in the evening, during the vernissage. Even if it was absolutely not planned - and, to be honest, I would rather have my artwork already on the wall - it was

I hate it, but I have to surrender if I want to get well soon. This week I had to go to work, malgré tout , on Wednesday and Thursday, taking the tram, the métro , the train and the bus (and the way back) because I had no choice (but there was also an excellent reason to be out and about on Wednesday evening) and yesterday took a short walk in my beloved Park, but I was not in good shape. It is just a mild flu, worsened by the frenetic rythm of my working week. I avoid any t

I was There - somehow - in my Mind And I knew it would be a Great Time Well done, Silver Boy: Keep spreading your Joy Enlightening Souls and Faces; I will see You in Nearby Places Vera da Pozzo An Italian in Paris 11th January 2026 Poem above by me, as always; the pictures below are by someone else.

Oh, I knew, I surely knew, I absolutely knew that it would happen soon. I have always been and I will always be impervious to the Jinxes and other Sad and Bad People whose happiness depend on other People actual, guessed or hoped unhappiness.

Such a beautiful place for writing a message in the snow: the best spot in my favourite Parisian park. Vera da Pozzo Paris, 7th January A. D. MMXXVI Post, writing in the snow and photos by me.

Just before switching my smartphone to the flight mode, yesterday, I found some good news. If Morrissey-solo was just an informative forum, it would be a fantastic place, but there are too many angry, bitter and nasty people who seem having nothing else to do in their life than complaining, bitching and mobbing: I guess that All You need is Me is dedicated to them, and probably If You don't like Me, then don't look at Me too. Even if I had to go to work today, because Epipha

[The first paragraphs of this article have been written on 3rd August 2025, but I did not have the time to finish it. I have decided to publish my article in its second version, updated but not completed, while I am looking forward for its whole, definitive version, next year. Vera da Pozzo, 31.12.2025] I have had the chance to attend seven concerts in two months; none of the gigs I planned and bought the tickets for was cancelled. By the way, I was and I will always be compl

Christmas Time is the perfect time for some good news, and here is one from Morrissey : the new album, long-awaited and recently renewed before its release, is coming soon, and the new tracklist is known. After his post about Sire Records , last week (I was so busy I just had the time to copy, past and send to a French friend the link to Morrissey Central's post), we finally know the new tracklist of this album, whose title Without Music the World dies has changed, because t
