Distentio Animi

Manifest

I enjoyed the innocence of burying objects

under the yard's roof sheet.

I stood sentry next to my sisters

waiting for he who never stopped arriving.

I boasted idols in the wall

that with pleasure I defaced.

I untied a pack of wolves

that ran after my years.

I lined up a full battalion between beer caps,
waiting for a salute.

I believed in a childhood murder

facing steadily the Monopoly board.

To play was a simulation to reinvent the void and

the void has always been something to mold.
