Vote Of Thanks At The Wedding



Locvizza, September 30, 1916

His name
Moammed Sceab

Descending
of emirs of nomads

suicide because he had not
Homeland


I love France and changed his name was Marcel


but it was French and did not know


live in the tent of his
where listening to the chanting of the Koran

tasting

a coffee and did not know the song


dissolve its abandonment


I took him along with the landlady
where we lived in Paris

by the number 5, rue des Carmes
wilted down the alley


rests in the cemetery of Ivry
suburb that seems to always

a day
a fair
decomposed

And maybe I just
know yet who lived


Giuseppe Ungaretti
