Ho visto il cielo grigio
e frecce gialle e nere
attraversare spazi lunghi
e larghi in un quadrato ingordo mentre io ...
... pensavo al cerchio che
nessuno vede, ma si sente
fremere e vibrare come
un lago indiano d'aria, ecco io ...
ho visto una piscina a scacchi
gialli e neri... nuovi ricchi
arrivati ieri in fretta e furia
cosa penso io?..
pensavo ad un amico anche lui
lontanamente indiano, forse
un capo o una comparsa al cine,
cosa voglio io?..
ah, fatemi lavare
ah, fatemi nuotare
ah, ah, ah, fatemi svanire
il tempo è un cerchio che finisce
la dove comincia.. neanche una fessura lo interrompe come
quando penso io..
dico del mio silenzio indiano
un dialetto di lontani specchi
e nuvole parlanti, è così
che scrivo io...
ah, fatemi asciugare
ah, fatemi scaldare
ah, ah, ah, fatemi svanire
