We always return to the land of childhood
after such a long journey ,that turned out
to be nothing but a deception .
There's only one mask for everyone ...
I bid farewell to the sublime .
I was wallowing in nostalgia at the foot
of Himalayas .
But my lovely goddess didn't come .
leaving me alone with my poor poem...
I was merely Mercury's messenger ,
transmuting the gold of words
in obscure worlds ...
Both a spark of genius and a speck of madness.
I leave my shadows to their regrets .
Mister Spock is dead .
In the memory of obsolete accessories
I'm hanging up my dandy's frock coat .
And I let the ink dry on a few forgotten regrets
on a shopping list ...
To flee this burlesque machinery driven
by a grotesque Barbie emerging
from Pandora's belly .
Before setting sail ,I would invite
some marble statues to the banquet of presence.
And harem of courtesans who will bear
the face of my faithful anima ...
Bathed by the subliminal glow of a sunrise
over the plains of Mercury .
I would finally be back where a Teddy
will be waiting for me ...

How many journeys as a child in daydream and night dreams, in books and in reality. A time that will never be equaled. Take me back but not to stay only memories.
