Imprendibile [English translation]

The red of the wine

is at the bottom of the glass

handprints

lazy, spoiled.

The soya sauce

has dirted the tablecloth

which must have been white.

Perhaps in the past

perhaps the other shadow is from ashes

It is clear what happened

it is revealed

it lived

it passed.

You believe you can close a wave in a bottle

but it is not catchable

Smile, boy,

the afternoon escape

and if you look closely, it is not even raining.

A disc ended

but it is like it never turned.

Today there is only a plane to board

and if you want, a train to jump on

to leave

for just a moment

for a long moment.

There is the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in.

You believe you can close a wave in a bottle

but it is not catchable.

Inexplicable

why

nothing is like what you expect.

Try to trap the wave in a bottle

catch the sea hidden at the bottom of a shell

follow the clouds, run, study the shapes.

not catchable x6
