ONLY HUMAN

  ONLY HUMAN I’m only humanThat’s all.A creature who speaks his thoughts.An insignificant magnificenceIn the blendPlaying it to the end of  this ComedyWandering and falling now and thenForgetting a line or twoReaching desperately for my  honor and dignity.No applause when it is done.You seeI ‘m just doing what is expected of me.I’m only a creature who speaks his thoughtsNot the one and only one.An insignificant magnificenceIn the blend

Oh Insignificant Magnificence!

Dear Longobardolino mio, Your honourable self is saluted for a good expression of your state, yes good, but humble, and I for one will applaud (laud) your efforts to mask the devils within. Your good humour and even your ability to write poetry and express your feelings so openly to others, is admirable and worthy of the Gypsy-Lombardian spirit that is still there in your heart of hearts. Your Annuccia with love.
