(Original Italian version)
Paralizzato
tra due realtà,
la coscienza stuprata
del suo agire
obbedisce
e soffre
impotente.
Frammenti
di ricordi morti
sotto le sabbie
della fugacità,
rievocati nel limbo
dell'oltraggioso presente.
Lasciali celati
a putrefare
abbandonati
in distanti recessi
della mia anima.
Il caos cerca
di predominare
sul mio essere,
ogni resistenza
è futile
nel sempiterno
angolo
della mia gabbia
dorata.

(Translated English version)
Paralysed
between two realities,
conscience raped
of its conduct
obeys
and suffers
powerless.
Fragments
of dead memories
under the sands
of fugacity,
reinvoked in the limbo
of the abusive present.
Leave them concealed
to rot
abandoned
in distant recesses
of my soul.
Chaos tries
to prevail
on my being,
every resistance
is futile
in the sempiternal
corner
of my golden
cage.
