SOFIA SKLEIDA

 

Innermost Thoughts

 

Fairy-born star of the Phaeacians

To you the first innermost thoughts lead me

The sea sounds on your pristine lips

wind ripples

that seduce the barbarians

Poetry is an escape

Your eyes are a mythical vision

My thought follows you

on the occult paths of a musical stave

caressing the strings of the Milanese Etruscan

and through the Andriatic waves leads to the Olympian firmament…

 

 

Erotic Partners

 

I put vinyl records on the turntable

to feel the "equal passion"

of the soul,

of the intangible heart wealth

Author of the short-term contract

I evidence your aura

In love with the past

that violently floods my flesh

By blessing our sacred moments

Memory is performed…

 

 

Humanly

 

Childish thinking

in centrifugal force

Slow step, lengthy

The mind salty is looking for

the light bulb

of the psycho-spirit ..
