Closeness

There was a day when
C’è stato un giorno in cui

sounding different seemed 
un suono diverso è sembrato

a useful coping strategy.
un’utile strategia di adattamento.

The gender of objects
Il genere degli oggetti

never stopped flashing 
non ha mai smesso di far capolino

like reminders of identities.
come promemoria di identità.

The road, a path
La strada, un tragitto

our relationship to the world
la nostra relazione con il mondo

our multiple us 
i nostri multipli noi

foreign to each other
stranieri a se stessi

one and the same.
eppure identici.

Voices whispering from behind
doors left ajar
Voci che bisbigliano dietro porte 
socchiuse

we are the morning, the backwash 
of faraway seas and the dusk chorus.
Siamo il mattino, la risacca di mari
lontani e il verso degli uccelli la sera.

Such Interlocutors complement
Tali interlocutori si completano

and when it’s time they temporise
e quando è ora temporeggiano

imperceptibly to get ready and 
play their role.
Impercettibilmente nel prepararsi
e fare la loro parte.

Alternate soundscapes they vocalise 
their own anima. 

Paesaggi sonori alternativi verbalizzano 
la propria anima.

Is this deconstruction and reconstruction 
is this closeness?
	
Si tratta forse di decostruire e ricostruire
oppure vicinanza?

And so I’m here writing through 
E così sono qui a scrivere attraverso

my two breaths, choosing words 
i miei due respiri, scegliendo parole

that you may understand.
che tu possa comprendere.

For when the beginning comes
Perché quando l’inizio verrà

each end will be forgotten
ogni fine sarà dimenticata

though the record of pain
sebbene la testimonianza del dolore

will remain lost in translation.
resterà intraducibile.

Closeness

Originally published with the title: Final coda, this song was born during the study for the live performance of the song: Fermo immagine, in the summer of 2022. It is the fourth and last of the collection: Testimoni di quel che resta, which has been the origin of all the other songs.  (If we can say so) the songs following the first are, in some ways, "processing waste" from a single harmonic cell that was born on the guitar during the winter of 2019 .. The other leitmotif of the songs is based on reflections on the concepts of death and abandonment, given that (again in the same year) I had the opportunity to deal with these issues due to a family bereavement.
Finally I managed to update the song with new small solutions found up to now compared to the previous version, I had been trying for some time since I practice playing it almost every day.

Poem 'Make Me Ready' by IB from the in progress new book

'Make me ready for the arrival of the rain
which is expected heavy but needed.
Show me what I can get rid of
pruning shrubs along the fluvial corridor.
And if we must leave 
the fourth industrial revolution behind
its augmented social reality 
to repair our notion of mortality
help me not to falter.
We may remain one day, one last day.'

'Preparami all’arrivo della pioggia
che si prevede intensa ma necessaria.
Mostrami ciò di cui sbarazzarmi
potare gli arbusti lungo il corridoio fluviale.
E se dobbiamo lasciarci alle spalle
la quarta rivoluzione industriale
la sua aumentata realtà sociale 
per poter recuperare la nozione di mortalità
aiutami a non vacillare.
Potremmo rimanere un giorno, un ultimo giorno.'

Make Me Ready
