«Se ti tagliassero a pezzetti»

Se ti tagliassero a pezzetti

il vento li raccoglierebbe

il regno dei ragni cucirebbe la pelle

e la luna tesserebbe i capelli e il viso

e il polline di Dio

di Dio il sorriso.

Ti ho trovata lungo il fiume

che suonavi una foglia di fiore

che cantavi parole leggere, parole d'amore

ho assaggiato le tue labbra di miele rosso rosso

ti ho detto dammi quello che vuoi, io quel che posso.

Rosa gialla rosa di rame

mai ballato così a lungo

lungo il filo della notte sulle pietre del giorno

io suonatore di chitarra io suonatore di mandolino

alla fine siamo caduti sopra il fieno.

Persa per molto persa per poco

presa sul serio presa per gioco

non c'è stato molto da dire o da pensare

la fortuna sorrideva come uno stagno a primavera

spettinata da tutti i venti della sera.

E adesso aspetterò domani

per avere nostalgia

signora libertà signorina fantasia

così preziosa come il vino così gratis come la tristezza

con la tua nuvola di dubbi e di bellezza.

T'ho incrociata alla stazione

che inseguivi il tuo profumo

presa in trappola da un tailleur grigio fumo

i giornali in una mano e nell'altra il tuo destino

camminavi fianco a fianco al tuo assassino.

Ma se ti tagliassero a pezzetti

il vento li raccoglierebbe

il regno dei ragni cucirebbe la pelle

e la luna la luna tesserebbe i capelli e il viso

e il polline di Dio

di Dio il sorriso.

Dartmouth Ridiculousness

Dartmouth's Office of Alumni Relations forwards this video as its greeting for this year.

Hug the Gay Away, Continued

Rachel Maddow interviews Richard Cohen, an unlicensed therapist with no credentials or degrees, other than an M.A., and author of two books claiming that you can cease to be gay (so as not to use the word 'cure,' to be fair to him). His books are being used to promote anti-homosexual legislation in Uganda, whereby homosexuality or knowledge of it with failure to denounce it, would be punishable by anywhere between three years (for the latter) and death by hanging (for 'homosexual acts').

This is a heated interview that, in my opinion, discredits and exposes him for the fraud and money-grubbing hypocrite he is.

And, by the way, I feel sorry for his wife. But then again, she's probably as deluded as he is....

Hug the Gay Away (Or Beat the Parents)

Either works according to a formerly gay loon.

Rachel Maddow reports:

I Guess I'm a Desperate Actor

I saw this a couple of days, but didn't want to make it more public than it already is. Now, I find myself wanting to present it as the waste of youtube space and broadcast time it is.

It's the most ridiculous anti-health reform ad I've seen in a while....

Man Created God In His Own Image

Scientific research confirms what I've always believed and what Freud said decades ago about who created whom in the man-god relationship.

In this study, it was discovered that people's own opinions coincide more closely with what they think god would think than with what they think other people believe. Furthermore, the same areas of the brain are activated when they ponder their own opinions or god's opinions, which is not the case when they ponder other people's opinions.

Something Good Out of Switzerland

They may be xenophobic and fine art snatchers, but the Swiss do have beautiful alpine scenery.

The Bigotry Army

This year, the Salvation Army must have watched too much Lou Dobbs or something. Before they give out toys, they are requiring that immigrant families be here legally, or that they have at least applied for legal status, or that at least one of their children is legal. What boobs! I knew they were homophobic, but this year they seem to be embracing all the ugly phobias.

How Will You Die?

Well, as a white male in my twenties, I'm most likely to die of suicide. Then, my biggest foe for the rest of my life is heart disease, followed by cancer.

How will you die? Check it out. Or go to the source if you'd like to see a zoomable version.
