"la violetta notturna"
Mandelstam🖊️

-Lupus in fabula-

Ci ha Fatto impazzire la vita forsennata:
all'alba vino ed al tramonto noia.
Come potrò fermarti, o vana gioia,
e il tuo colore, o peste inebriata?

"Only in Russia poetry is respected—it gets people killed. Is there anywhere else where poetry is so common a motive for murder?"

Alone I stare into the frost's white face
it's going nowhere, and I - from nowhere .....
and snow crunches in the eyes
innocent, like clean bread ..... Osip Mandelstam
