A Thousand Breathing Crosses

En moi, battent de l’aile, Eternelles colombes
Les blancs desirs du calme ou dorment les defunts
(Paul Valery, from «Cimetiere» approx. 1890)
Tears of May…
How much I have cried for you, my love
But you stand-up
While I fall on my kness…
Yesterday, I killed myself:
I couldn’t just go on with this
The tears of June at least
I won’t cry anymore…
(Mia Martini)
