Impediti di esprimersi al meglio li vorremmo a sudare per noi in lavori di accatto
E che delimitino i loro spazi tanti spruzzi di orina sul territorio
Soffocati sul nascere un nido coperto da un panno. (1990) |
Black
Nelo Risi
Kept from expressing themselves fully we’d like them to slave away for us in menial jobs
And for them to delimit their spaces numerous spurts of urine on the territory
Suffocated at birth a nest covered by a cloth. (1990)
