Carmen Consoli
Al terzo mese di gravidanza isterica
gi?
sul viso i morbidi tratti di maternit?
diceva Maddalena sarebbe un nome particolare insieme a Sofia
nel caso fosse maschio Vincenzo Maria.
Al sesto mese di gravidanza isterica
tutti ritennero fosse opportuno non scomodare la verit?
Insidiati dai rimorsi per averle dato il tormento
finch?
desse alla luce una creatura entro l’et?
feconda
Mentre aspettava il lieto evento
che mai avrebbe avuto luogo
comprava abiti premaman e una culla di legno
come quelle di una volta
le si leggeva in faccia smisurata felicit?
per la dolce attesa
Al nono mese di gravidanza isterica
tutti mantennero la messa in scena invariata per vilt?
sarebbe stata questione di giorni ed avrebbe chiarito da se
l’increscioso equivoco di cui era la sola ed unica artefice
Mentre aspettava il lieto evento
che mai avrebbe avuto luogo
sentiva quell’essere muoversi con grazia superba
come un trapezista in scena le si leggeva in faccia smisurata felicit?
Mentre aspettava il lieto evento
aveva gi?
pensato a tutto
prete, battesimo e clinica dalla culla di legno
come quelle di una volta ai pi?
svariati tipi di carion.
Mistica e lenta la dolce attesa
la dolce attesa

In the third month of hysterical pregnancy
already
on the face the soft features of motherhood?
said Maddalena would be a particular name together with Sofia
if Vincenzo Maria were male.
In the sixth month of hysterical pregnancy
all felt it was appropriate not to disturb the truth?
Threatened with remorse for giving her the torment
until
gave birth to a creature within the age?
fruitful
While she waited for the happy event
that would never take place
she bought maternity clothes and a wooden cradle
like they used to be
she could read boundless happiness in her face?
for the sweet expectation
In the ninth month of hysterical pregnancy
did everyone keep the staging unchanged for cowardice?
it would have been a matter of days and would have cleared up by itself
the unfortunate misunderstanding of which she was the one and only author
While she waited for the happy event
that would never take place
she felt that being moving with superb grace
like a trapeze artist on stage one could read boundless happiness in her face?
While waiting for the happy event
she had already
thought of everything
priest, baptism and wooden cradle clinic
like those of the past to the pi?
various types of carion.
Sweet expectation is mystical and slow
the sweet expectation
