FAR VUOTO 

I remember we talked about compassion for women, not a feeling of pain that goes from top to bottom.

a feeling of unconditional love for which we cannot ask for anything in return

the vertical plane as a possibility of returning to earth as an angel.

A concrete and real emergency plan in this historic moment.

It is immediately clear to me that the body should be brought. welcomed and accompanied.

I remember thinking of rescue maneuvers on the wall.

the creature continues to move down.

a breath of life doesn't leave she, as my mother        

and then the dress. I wanted something that could fall. as the plaster from the walls

represents for me all houses around the world.  the land holding tight in her hand, her own house.

I remember a pattern, the same throughout the descent, Marco's sax sounds a theme that stubbornly repeats itself.

often compassion that is associated with something that's more of tenderness.    

Compassion is not a simple feeling, it involves pain, patience and endurance, suffering in compassion.
