MARIA GRAZIA CALANDRONE
Fossil

fossil put one hand here like a white blindfold, close my eyes, flood the threshold with blessings, after passing through the green gold of the iris like a queenly bee and - mote by mote, of gold and winnowed wheat – turning me into your hive of light a bee constellation wheels around the linden with inhuman wisdom, a gyration of minds sticking fast to the honey tree – it would be reductive to call it love this necessity of nature – while a foregone emptiness heals over without a trace between flower and flower: use your mouth, ease the golden stinger from my heart, the memory of a flash of light that burnt my human form in some prehistory where madmen caress stones as if they were children’s heads: come closer, like the first among lost things and that face rises up from stone to smile again

MARIA GRAZIA CALANDRONE
imaginary letter

where I was flesh she was ivory (Pier Paolo Pasolini) dawn of tender flesh, trapped in the exoskeleton of the Law in the tragic month of November everything was weeping hold me tight, outside of human bounds hold me like a mother in a dreamed embrace
