TWO DAYS IN BUDAPEST
March 1991
VARTA BATTERIEN goes up and down
on a locomotive train.
Più La,
does not seem to scroll,
but rather wrinkling
in large patches
and is not Blue Danube,
but reflects in the water,
now, a sky
monotonously the same.
The woman coat
è azzurro; the hat
is clear.
in piedi, a little bent,
rests her arms
antecedent to the wall
the large bed of water.
In alto, on the opposite side,
e a sinistra, the statue
Princess Sissi can to
rest those hands raised
in search of freedom
for an oppressed people.
The Little Yellow Train, with
the white base that then
stops for the wheels,
is the second time that passes.
"Varta batterien", advertising
a visual e ambulante
curious su rotaie
Lucid and consunte.
Cars parked,
bus that from
hotel seem
a little toys.
And a child runs fast
on crowded sidewalks.

"The Russian soldiers
there will be no more ".
Andranno via.
And the white barracks
will be white houses
for the urban poor
Hungarian. Era forte,
mighty, proud of love
for his land,
grateful for the praise
to his people, near the
table last night;
Daniel?
The Chain Bridge port
the car in a few minutes
from one side of the river,
For the eyes just for a moment
and continue to scrutinize domes
verdastre, Castles redone,
– after a 2° world war –
which are based on small
heights.
You can then proceed
continuing to look
intersected the slope.
It's cold.
The woman is still firm
walled corner
with the green railing.
Down there the Danube:
looks.
The river flows, o si increspa,
or dance like movements
Hungarian folk dances,
or accepts stains oleastre
del motoscafo fermo. . . ,
but continues varied and
insistently without tiring
while happy and relieved
looks like its Hungarian people
without the Warsaw Pact.
               
"They will go away".
And from a small Cozzaglia
coats of arms of the party
and aviator used,
a tall, blond
nationality Russian,
no more soldier
garrison in Budapest,
when it comes to April
and return in his own land,
yesterday offered for 1000 Fl,
symbol for me
of relationships between people,
with the date of purchase
marked on the basis,
a small bust of Lenin.
