Centro di gravità permanente [English translation]

An old woman from bretone*

with a hat and an umbrella from paper of rice and cane of bamboo.

Brave captains

smart macedonian (hmmm ) smugglers.

euclidean Jesuits

dressed with bronze clothes in order to enter in the court of the emperors

of Ming’s dynasty.

I look for a center of permanent gravity

in order never to make me change idea about things on people

I’m in need of…

I look for a centre

In the streets of Beijing they were days of May

between us it was joked to collect nettles.

i cannot stand the russian choruses

the music pretended (to be) rock, the italian new wave , the free jazz, English punk.

Not even the black african.

I look for a centre

I’m in need of…

I look for a centre
