Like a Flash in the Morning
You enter in the Bedroom
Slamming the Door
But I can't see Your Face:
You are White and Bright
As a Lightning in the Night
And when You come to Me
Without saying a Word
And You stand near the Bed
Just over My Head
I still can't see You, except
Your skinny Legs and Hips
And when I grab You
As I was a small Child again
You are as Silent as a Statue
And - so sad! - I will never know
If You would have said Something
For My Sister is waking me up
To the Unique and Irreplaceable
Vera da Pozzo
Somewhere in the North of Italy, 11th August 2025
Poem above and picture below by me.
(C) Vera da Pozzo
(C) Italy is Mine
(C) Italy is Mine and It owes Me a Living

A song fitting to my mood: Ouija Board, Ouija Board, by Morrissey and Stephen Street, released as a single on 13 November 1989, and included in the compilation album Bona Drag, released on 15 October 1990.
