notes on “my” EINEM

by elena gianotti

 

Forgotten flexibility in this ‘everywhereslowness’
Gravity is here not to say anything. It makes me belong. I belong to this planet
I accept, I just accept the choral movement, I can see laps of it…
There is only my flashing consciousness to listen to
I do listen and affirm my existence

Now caring for movement
I disappear with no meaning of being- expiring
No necessity to oppose on the dissolving stillness.
I still see matter crashing through the worlds,
My world is tiny

Underestimate flexibility:
I can’t answer what you are asking for,
Squeezed-back-curved, I bend towards the floor
People are close, eyes looking too close, I am confused by this crossing of thoughts: not mine but others.
They come with elaborated arabesques,
I see a shape bent backwards
I see you

Waiting for the wind to stab me,
I exist in the disappearing room
How do I exist?
I am blasts
I chance that balance that makes me proud of myself,
The Floors call
Blasts happen around me
I do nothing
I don’t even react
I am becoming difficult
I get reduced

I see now a beautiful figure
Power is called and comes towards me and we dance together
My body is a shared place
Wandering vitality for us to make movement happen

A taoist figure can’t share his secrets
Immortality is a reaching point: circling, circling.
What is animal in me? Affirmation
I am here
Body is movement and I exist
I exhale mortality
I exhale people
I inhale

Elbows suddenly become important
A revelation in the system
And to kiss the floor seems the lover’s perfect moment
I dance no doubt
The world is here and laughs
And I shake hands and share eyes
No matter
No spiritual matter, no physical matter.
Body is all over, on the walls, on the ceiling, on other people’s faces
Exhilarating energy.

Fight is a wondering word as I fight to fly and step into my navel
The cliché’ of breathing seems to come along
Leaving the spaces that I frighten most.
Spirit is the unknown, I make it drop into movement
No fear to fall
no fear to fear

Hardness comes through
I curse hard rocks
I curse hard steps on this gentle floor
I let the room squeeze
I will survive the nothingness of the disappearing room.
