Carmen Consoli
Miscellaneous
Fourteenth of July
I watched her hands insolently teasing a fake rose
and it was so sweet the way she
hid her embarrassment
/>while he spoke and smiled ironically
about his own misfortunes he kept his eyes lowered
I looked at his hands that were intertwined
among the embroidery of a tablecloth
I could barely hold back my desire
to grasp them to attack their pain
mixed with incense the flavor of a frugal meal
memories stunned by time
despite being similar to many, many other people
it was special... special
I watched his hands emphasizing
opinions with elegance
among the sudden similarities
symbiotic intuitions the friendly transport
mixed with incense the taste of a frugal meal
memories faded by time
despite being similar to many, many other people
it was special... special
I let myself be seduced by his quirks
I let myself be seduced by his quirks
I let myself be seduced by his quirks
