Welcome there, child,
Don't be scared of me!
I'm naught, but a wild
Demon, a hero of fate!
Take my hand now,
And follow me please!
I'm gonna show you
What's worth to be seen!
I'm aware of my looks.
I'm aware of the scent.
Don't take me a fool
There's much more than that!
What would you like?
Past, future, or present?
So many wonders
And so many paths!
I'm everywhere,
But you cannot find me,
I am nowhere
Nearby the sane!
I am omnipotent
An all-knowing thing!
Wish I could show you
What's there, what is here!
Let's go for a walk!
Where none have walked before.
Miracles await us
O'er there, in the fort!
Troops are long gone.
They went to a war,
Left behind the gold
And the women alone.
"I'd fancy them ores!"
Sayeth the Lord
Of the neighboring keep.
"Lads, let us get the swords!"
And that's how it was.
That's how it goes:
To lose, it takes but
One mistake, and no more.
For they learned 'bout the plan
And so did they strike
Before they could reach them
There was none left to die!
You don't want to see,
I know, I saw it all.
It wasn't pretty,
It wasn't just a brawl.
This is familiar.
This is what you know.
High keeps reaching clouds,
And privacy no more!
Where are the bright colors?
Where are the smiles, the laughs?
Everyone's on phones,
They won't talk to the friends.
Can you smell the fear?
Quite a dire odor.
Incoming war, they see,
When have we heard that before?
They were looking for the signs,
Alas they were none to sight,
For when the rockets came
They were concealed by the night.
And so it began,
And so this the end.
Or is it? I've to ask,
The futures are to blend!
Yes, I am omnipotent,
but my talents have limits.
Knowing everything
is not indefinite.
There, you see the ruins.
There, you see the bones.
Where they kept the jewels
Are now the soldier's tombs.
Everything's so green!
Everything's so nice!
The nature came back here,
Where the people had the vice.
D'you remember the war?
Remember the fight?
It kept going on,
Till 'twas the end o' humankind.
Everything's so green.
Everything's so nice.
Everyone's a corpse.
Everyone's beneath the ground.
It was written through roughly seven months under the title "Children's nightmare song".
They were sleeping when the lights came through their window. They were not blessed with great wits or the gift of logical thinking. What they were given was great eyes instead: they had a condition called abnormal tetrachromacy, which meant that they had limited infrared-vision. When I learned about it from them I, as I have been always fascinated by colors and color deception, had to ask...
This is chronologically the first short story I publised in English, even if it wasn't the first I began writing.
Days have turned into nights that then turned into dawns and days again countless times since I saw L'amore d'Agna. It was the truest form of love, the purest source of happiness, yet there are no evidence that it ever existed; all I know is based on observations and experience, not on the nowadays preferred written way...

the Earth's moving, spinning, rotating, dour
and just moves forth and further away
from the core
from the base
from the center of the milky way...
Lil' Jesus is coming to the town.
And he have brought some gifts for us!
But there was a wee bit
O' misunderstanding,
Because he bought the "Gift" in Germany..
