Psicologia
Grazie per psicologia, signor Wundt
Tu! Intelligente
The field opens our minds to make us realize so much
Manual boring tasks make no sense
Corps constantly talk about research
Bu they are full of false correlational fico matter
Psicologia helps us realize that the cubicle is annoiso
Without knowledge one cannot succeed
Grazie signor(dottore) Wundt
half asleep
half awake
I am looking
staring
at a an attractive
young women
on a print on my wall
of a famous painting
imagining the painter
Signor Leonardo
saying to Ms. Lisa
with a sensuous accent
come on
Monna
give me
a little smile
just a little more
a teeny bit more
aspetta
grazie
Signor Fellini
Imagine us
Respectful of your shadows
Held in suspension by your cinematic mirror
These dreams of yours
Realized through creation’s gift
Offer such ethereal answers
To those of us aroused
Beyond the screen
Your genius remains omnipresent
Extended for touching by hearts and minds
Beseeching all to embrace
Granting acknowledgment and insight
Beyond usual cinema bequests
Yes Signor Fellini
You brought your vision to our eyes
Asking not we accept
But merely contemplate the little boy
Made man behind the camera
For such curiosity
You granted patience
Never asking we believe your honesty
But to consider our own truth
Your essence remains present
Resounding quietly above life’s noise
Easily accessed with but memory
Thoughtfully embraced with smiles of trust
May the purity of La Dolce Vita’s final scene
The echo of silence
From distance unamplified
Whispering from within
Ever haunt those unable to listen
Those unwilling to hear
