"E il mio maestro mi insegnò com'è difficile trovare l'alba dentro l'imbrunire."
Prospettiva Nevski, Franco Battiato.
Opera Poster. Just for you — from €200.
We could do it like this — even just to get through this bit of a standstill.
We could say maybe one evening you come round to mine, and we just sit and talk for a bit. Which, to me, sounds like such a small thing, really.
Two bottles of white wine, still, not fruity, obviously. Cold. Properly cold.
Though technically there's barely anything at my place yet — I've only just moved in.
There's only the bed, but I did get a duvet cover, at least.
But I think you already know that.
So we'd sit on the bed — but like I said, to talk.
Which doesn't just mean talking — it means really talking.
Actually, not quite on the bed — more like sitting on the floor beside it.
And I don't know if you talk much, or if you even like talking.
I don't think you like talking that much, but I think you really want to, deep down.
No candles, of course — but maybe a little spotlight, a covered lamp, just to make the place feel a bit more red. That low kind of red that would wrap around you like some kind of #universe cloud.
I'd just be looking at you, lost in that #universe, trying to find you. Drifting, searching for the things I really think are there, because I think you're exactly how I imagine you. And every so often you'd smile — the kind where your mouth, side-on, gets half-hidden by your #hair, which falls, and stays there only for a moment because you push it back with your hand, like you were scattering #stars.
And then, you'd give me a kiss that stretches all the way from Emilia to Africa.
