Da qualche parte, in Europa
A lungo ho avuto paura di riprendere il volo,
ma ora sento che è tempo di sciogliere le gomene e navigare di nuovo nel gran mare dell’Essere.
Come l’Ulisse dantesco ho voglia di sfidare il destino,
inseguendo fino in fondo virtute e canoscenza.
Ho le penne lacerate dai cicloni, eppure sento ancora addosso la voglia di volare.
Paradossi di un’inquietudine si dipanano,
da una poesia di Montale fino a un autobus in direzione aeroporto.
Ma adesso scacciamo i fantasmi antichi e partiamo.
So let’s get on board, leave and fly!

Somewhere in Europe
For a long time I had been scared of flying again.
But now I feel it’s time to untie the hawsers and sail again in the big sea of Being.
Just like Dante’s Ulixes I want to go for broke, givin’ chase to virtute e canoscenza.
I’ve got my wings broken by the cyclons; anyway I still feel like flying.
Paradoxes of my restlessness are scattered from a Eugenio Montale’s poem to a bus leading to the airport.
But now let’s banish the ancient ghosts and start travelling again.
So let’s get on board, leave and fly!

nice story
I believe, as students nowadays everyone would want to quickly go back to school to study. But during this pandemic, all schools have been closed because the ministers of education in each country do not allow children to study in schools. so we as students can only study at home which is very boring but we can not do anything. we hope this Corona Virus can pass quickly and we can go back to school like normal again.. God Bless all of us.
