To dear Planet Earth
O EARTH, STOP!!
O Earth, Stop! Stop! Stop!
Every time you go around
No shouts of joy but
Moans an’ cries will sound.
Haven’t you got dizzy, busy
Feeding the thankless
From your fields and trees?
O Earth, Stop! Stop! Stop!
Every time you spin
Your dwellers fight
Where none will ever win.
Don’t you feel sorry, unhappy
Offering yourself to those
Who’re losing your keys?
O Earth, Stop! Stop! Stop!
Every time you revolve
Your tenants make problems
They never want to solve.
Haven’t you been steady, ready
With the wisdom of survival
For those who have become
So violent, so suicidal?
O Earth, Stop! Stop! Stop!
Your volcanos, hurricanes
Tsunamis, pandemics
Everyone owes and fears!
Yes, we’ll repent, watering
The green we denuded
You from, dear mum,
With floods of tears.
So, earth, Stop! Stop! Stop!
To start dancing instead,
Roll with our dreams
Where we’ll escort you
With your countless flowers!
We’ll breathe out an’ spread
Your fresh breeze
Through the whole universe
To echo the resurrection hymn
To all the generations
Of our dead!

Of Multiculturalism and Human Solidarity
The Multi-ONE
I’m one
Yes, I’m only one,
The human being
That God brought
To this existence
Of multiplicity.
I have one tongue
To speak out
My joys and sorrows
Though heard
In many languages.
I have one skin
That feels caresses
And whip’s lashes
Though looks
In many colors.
I have one heart
Beating on rhythms
Of likes and dislikes
Of faith and doubt
Though following
Many religions.
I have one mind
That tries to tell me
It’s Our ONE God’s Grace
Of MULTICULTURALISM.

On the Refugees’ Crisis and Europe’s Future
TO EUROPE WITH LOVE– 2
Names for Laocoon’s Sons
Europe dear,
Where’s your ancient Greece’s
Wise man gone?
Have you ever his two sons known?
If you don’t know let me tell you:
One is FRANCE’s Marat
The other GERMANY’s Goethe
Both … both with their father
Didn’t survive the deadly serpents’ bites
The first, the Revolution’s martyr,
For his patriotism
The second, for challenging
Through his ‘Faust’ all devil’s pacts
Some think that Trojan Horse
Is galloping over the abyss between
Yesterday’s myth and today’s facts.
Oh, if only ENGLAND’s Shakespeare
Had sketched in his plays any leader,
Somewhere between his retired King Lear
And imperialism-addicted Macbeth!
But as both are now powerless penniless
In the playwright’s inky graveyard,
Some may think that foreseeing
Trojan Horse’s reincarnation
Is not that hard
Wait! Let me try to ask ITALY’s Dante
Who’s still busy building an endless ladder
Between his ‘Inferno’ and ‘Paradiso’:
Have you mentioned in your ‘Comedia’
A thousand and one Troys
Where every ‘Laocoonian party
Is condemned for being too wise?
Some would ask: But should Trojan Horse
Always be of such a massive size?
But at Dante’s Paradise,
Though unmentioned,
SPAIN’s Cervantes
Who had once been trodden
By past horses wild
Has been always there
Ready to send his Don Quixote
Who has taught the whole world
How we should be ridiculous in order
To secure our crazy dreams
Thus, he finds no shame to ride
That ever-pregnant wooden horse
For whatever its bowels would bring
There will be no risk … yes …
Remember all parties, all factions,
All unions, all camps, all sects
That the past plaguing horse
Had no rider, no spur, no bridle
Today, to keep peace alive, we should say:
Where there’s a horse there is a horseman.
That what I’ve guessed, dear Europe,
From your Renaissance heroes’ works,
And that what a coming-soon Renaissance
Of no arms but only banners white
Will bloodlessly put into action
So, let’s wait for the Prophetic Knight!
