verbalizzazione astratta di signora

Click on title to hear poem... performed by Luigi Pennone, Arrigo Lora-Totino, Sergio Cena/Recorded February 1976 in Torino from the LP Futura Poesia Sonora (Cramps Records, Milan)

From UBU...
In his "Verbalizzazioni Astratte" ("Abstract verbalizations"), Fortunato Depero developed the onomatopoeic invention to the point of paroxysm and, in a certain sense, left it behind. For Depero the poet, onomatopoeia is a problem of language, the language of natural forces developed to the maximum of sonic intensity. Depero does not describe the object or the sensation or the state of mind, he makes them act sonically... sex whimpers its timidity stammeringly in "Verbtilizzazione astratta di signora" ("Abstract verbalization of a lady")...

anarchy

Dali Atomicus by Philippe Halsman

...About this and this, he cried; about order and anarchy. There is your precious order, that lean, iron lamp, ugly and barren; and there is anarchy, rich, living, reproducing itself—there is anarchy, splendid in green and gold...

...Thieves respect property. They merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it.

That young man with the long, auburn hair and the impudent face—that young man was not really a poet; but surely he was a poem. That old gentleman with the wild, white beard and the wild, white hat—that venerable humbug was not really a philosopher; but at least he was the cause of philosophy in others. That scientific gentleman with the bald, egg-like head and the bare, bird-like neck had no real right to the airs of science that he assumed. He had not discovered anything new in biology; but what biological creature could he have discovered more singular than himself?

OURstoryOURS

The new documentary The Lost Son of Havana tells the story of baseball legend Luis Tiant and his return to Cuba after 46 years.

vía NPR - PD... press title for complete article

...The moment illustrates the central tension of the story: by leaving Cuba and his/MY family, Tiant/I found huge success. His/MY family did not.

"He's/ I HAVE been running from it his/MY whole life," Hock/I says.

Returning to Cuba brings Tiant/ME a measure of peace. "I feel better," he/I says in the film. "My heart is better; my head is better. I guess I can close my book now. If I die, I die happy."

sobre la tierra...

Violet-Green-and-Red-1951-Rothko

Sobre la tierra amarga,
caminos tiene el sueño
laberínticos, sendas tortuosas,
parques en flor y en sombra y en silencio;

criptas hondas, escalas sobre estrellas;
retablos de esperanzas y recuerdos.
Figurillas que pasan y sonríen
—juguetes melancólicos de viejo—;

imágenes amigas,
a la vuelta florida del sendero,
y quimeras rosadas
que hacen camino... lejos...
