L'affondamento del Cinastic - Vinicio Capossela

La notte era un Iceberg

E a furia

Di cozzarci contro

Il Cinastic si affond?

Nel porto delle nebbie d’Interland

Il nostro transatlantico sostava

I libri, le scialuppe

I manoscritti, le caldaie

L’orchestra ci ha suonato Charles Trenet

E sulle note di La Mer

Nell’acqua scura si affond?

Sono Cinastic,

Vado a passeggio

E nel mio cappottone

Rido sornione

Io trovo dappertutto la poesia

Anche nell’atrio a casa mia

Tra odor di chiuso e di brioches

Seduti nella sera a San Giuliano

Con un bicchiere in mano di Galliano

Di poesia discutevamo

Ma da quando hanno serrato il mio locale

I piccoli scrittori non san pi?

Dove andare

La cassa color panna,

L’insegna la lavagna

L’orchestra ci ha suonato Charles Trenet

E sulle note di La Mer

Nell’acqua scura si affond?

Il mio socio sta abbracciato

Ad una ruota

Sopra il selciato

Che m’importa del Cinasic che

?

Affondato

Valuter?

Qualche

Proposta inserzionale

E chiuso il giornale

A Kalakuta me ne andr?..

Lasciatemi qua, lasciatemi qua

The night was an Iceberg

And by dint

To collide with it

The Cinastic sank?

In the harbor of the Interland mists

Our ocean liner was parked

The books, the lifeboats

The manuscripts, the boilers

The orchestra was played by Charles Trenet

And on the notes of La Mer

Did he sink into the dark water?

I'm Cinastic,

I go for a walk

And in my overcoat

I laugh slyly

I find poetry everywhere

Even in the atrium of my house

Between the smell of closed and brioches

Sitting in the evening in San Giuliano

With a glass in the hand of Galliano

We discussed poetry

But since they closed my place

The little writers do not know more?

Where to go

The cream-colored case,

The blackboard teaches it

The orchestra was played by Charles Trenet

And on the notes of La Mer

Did he sink into the dark water?

My partner is being hugged

One wheel

Above the pavement

What do I care about Cinasic that

?

Sunk

Valuter?

Some

Advertising proposal

And closed the newspaper

Will I go to Kalakuta? ..

Leave me here, leave me here
