A Poem by Alessandra Mascarin

I HAD A DREAM AND I WAS THERE

 

And every night she went to that sea and she saw herself

Free dancing foam

in my absent eyes of glass

Free evanescent skirt

in the white play of my wind

 

And every night she went to that sea and she saw herself

 

Life captured by the inebriation of freedom,

forever consecrated to the emotion of a Memory

Reflection of the last happiness hour,

born from the sea to flood my soul

 

And every night she went to that sea and she saw herself

 

White melancholy pleasure

through my rhythmic jumps downhill

Blue harmonic frenzy

through the depths of my moon halo

 

And every night she went to that sea

to drown into the timeless immensity

And she saw herself

inside the stable and fleeting totality
