The whore is queen, her throne a ruin, her land a piece of shitty field, her sceptre a purse of red patent leather: she barks in the night,
dirty and ferocious as an ancient mother:
she defends her possessions and her life.
The pimps swarming around
bloated and beat
with their Brindisi or Slavic moustaches are leader, ruler:
in the dark they make their hundred lire deals, winking in silence, exchanging passworda: the workd, excluded, remains silent about those who have excluded themselves, silent carcasses of predators.
in the open spaces
where on thinks the city ends
where instead it behins again
hostile, begins again a thousands times with bridges
and labyrints, foundations and
diggins, behind a surge of skyscrapers covering whole horizons.
In the ease of love
the wretch feels himself a man,
builds up faith in life,
and ends despising all who have a different life.
The sons throw themselves inti adventure
secure in a world which fears them an sex.
Their piety us in being pitiless,
their strength in their lightness,
their hope in having no hope.
