FREE BUTTERFLIES

FREE BUTTERFLIES

Poems by: Alda Merini
Translated by: Roland Gjoza

Oh, poor and lonely women
violated by them
who did not recognize you.
women with hands
in infancy.
Sweet secrets
love remember
with which
your natural greed
would never be satisfied.
You will also eat dust
you will try to go crazy
but you won't make it,
you will keep the thread of reason
that will separate you
I doubt it.
From these depths
wounds
you will be freed
free butterflies
