Caos chiamato SCAMPIA

Lucinda Matlock
I went to dance Chandlerville
and played the cards in Winchester.
Once we changed companions
back in the carriage under the moon of June,
and so I met Davis.
We were married and lived together seventy years.
I spun, wove, I took care of the house, vegliavo the sick,
cultivating the garden and the party,
I often went to the fields where sang the larks,
and by Spoon River gathering many shells,
and many flowers and many herbal medicines-
shouting to the wooded hills, singing to the green valleys.
At ninety years I had lived long enough, that's all,
and passed to a sweet repose.
What is this I hear of sorrow and weariness
and anger, discontent and failed hopes?
Degenerate sons and daughters,
Life is too strong for you-
it takes life to love Life ...
