Trastevere
due cani che si annusano
si amano e se ne vanno dopo un po'
i passi frettolosi di chi corre
per non perdere il metrò
confondersi
tra folle di turisti che non sanno
quanti cuori ha la città
e cercano solo quella via
che han visto solo in fotografia
e ti mandano a quel paese
tra monumenti e antiche chiese
e abbandonando mucchi di rifiuti
se ne vanno via
un tale sbuffa un po'
uscendo da un museo
perché di fronte a lui
adesso c'è un corteo
c'è un vecchio che non sa
nemmeno la sua età
ma lo commuove il jazz
e ascolta Summertime
Trastevere
mercati mattutini dell'usato
dove i prezzi son follia
artisti e venditori di parole
che cercano con ansia un posto al sole
e ti guardano senza vedere
forse perduti tra i ricordi e il bere
perché i ricordi che non sai tenere
se ne vanno via
Io resto ancora un po'
che fretta non ne ho
tanto di fronte a me
io vedo solo te
da quando non ci sei
nemmeno mangio più
e cambierò città
se qui non torni tu
E la pubblicità
che a intermittenza va
mi dice il 6
X3 che tu non fai per me
