the winter anthology
Vol. 7
Elisa Biagini
from watering the plant
of dreaming (dialogue
with Paul Celan)
A burnt match
lifts your eyelid,
it looks for the retina’s
mirror, the net
with fish-memories.
Un fiammifero usato
ti solleva la palpebra,
ti cerca lo specchio di
retina, la rete coi
pesci-memorie.
