ATMOSPHERIC POETRY

How many days of absence

the air needs

to empty the exhaling

of your skin

that the scent of jasmine or cypress

will establish again

all the beautiful fragrances

of the faceless nature?

How long it takes

for the landscape to maintain

that overpowering combination

of breeze and a certain footstep?

How long the cosmos will still remind

the meeting of an unimportant glance 

when will the light regain

its absolute superiority

over the momentary triumph

of a human shadow?
