THROUGH THE SHADOWS
I at last
accomplished the action
Of descending
the Fifteen Steps
Towards the Darkness
And ascending
my inner Spiral
Toward the Light
Thus consecrated by necessity
I become spirit
Face in the Dark in the Dark I see
Voice in the Dark in the Dark I hear
As I fall to the ground, gasping for Air
Into the Light, through the Shadows
I am Ion, Priest of the Sanctuary,
And I have suffered, suffered
intolerable Violence
He removed all the Skin from my Head
With the Sword that he held
He mixed my Bones with my Flesh
And burnt them with the Fire of the treatment
Face in the Dark in the Dark I see
Voice in the Dark in the Dark I hear
As I fall to the ground, gasping for Air
Into the Light, through the Shadows

Silver Lakes
It begins… Here it comes
It begins… It begins with a shiver
It tickles my mind
I’m floating in my madness
Above the waters of normality
I’m armed with dead
Flowers of illusion
Enticed, seduced
It whispers words to my ear
It whispers desire
It slides down my spine
It flows away
It slips away through my fingers
I want its whisper
And I forget myself
Second ablution
Soothing the scar
Containing the tears
of Pride
Denying the pleasure
I’m armed with dead
Flowers of illusion
Enticed, seduced
It whispers words to my ear
It whispers desire
It slides down my spine
It flows away
It slips away through my fingers
I want its whisper
And I forget myself
It begins… Here it comes

WALTZ
Too late
For eternal Youth
Too late
Oh sweet dance
Take me away from their staring
Crying my melody AT them
Singing nude on the earth
Prisoner of my creation
Drawing an old colourless motion
Too late
Too late
And the shy universe
Was left for centuries
Romantically hidden
In its dwelling
Made of love
So safe
Unaware
Oh sweet dance
Take me away from their staring
Spitting my melody at them
Spinning nude on the earth
Prisoner of my religion
Sighing unbearable vain illusions

NEW DANCE
Here I am, once again
Praying, craving
Why this sudden, sudden craving?
Swaying like a willow
Flowing cool, cool wind
Soothing my wounded skin
Craving, dancing
Swaying in the twilight
Paralysed
Once again, in a limbo
Between thinking and doing
Swaying, dancing
Swaying in the moonlight
Swaying, dancing
Barefoot on shiny marble
Hand motion, reading space
Drawing rituals in the air
Praying
But I still feel like dancing
Breathing Dances
Presence in the moonlight
I can feel a presence
Dancing in the glade
Paralysed

SOGNO TRIBALE
Transmuting Desire
Foreseeing the Obsession
The painful Solution
Fighting to keep Balance
Through the Acceptance
Dance in my strange Attire
Drawing Wisdom from an ancient Passion
Collecting myself
away from inner Hells
Observing from an Angle,
remote Thoughts untangle
Exhilaration, Exaltation
My sweet Obsession
And painful Solution
Come, come in Waves
