Poetry

Here I intend to keep various poetry (not mine usually but that is not excluded). I hope I won't infrange any copyright law, and hereby ask the owners to warn me in case I am already.

• La notte dei geodati (breve raccontino per insonni) - [it]
  A short fiction about open access to public geodata, posted by Rattus Norvegicus on the rekombinant mailing list (http://liste.rekombinant.org/wws/info/rekombinant).
• La mia patria (non e' un'azienda) - [it]
  Lyrics of a song from the Reperto RaIOT satirical piece of Sabina Guzzanti (2004). I bought the DVD+Book version edited by BUR (2005) for 16EUR. It's worth it! The book is for more then a half composed by documents gathered by Marco Lillo explaining Sabina's statements. On Sabina's site you can find some video excerpts from the show and mp3 recorings. I mirrored the mp3 here. The "Tiggi' Ciao" song is dedicated to Daniela Tagliafico, vice director of the first national news program (TG1); she was "purged" by the director due to political contrasts (censured, someone says). You can read more from herself on the Schienadritta [it] blog, created by public television journalists to promote a reform of it.
• Io non vorrei crepare - [it]
  An lovely translation of the poem of Boris Vian, as transcribed when I worked as a light technicial in a theater of Rome. Thanks to Andrea Buscemi for sharing (the actor playing it every night just before the start of the real play - for the joy of himself and the very little platea formed by me and occasionally other actors of the company).
• Primavera - [it]
  A short rhyme about spring written by Lina Schwarz and pubblished by Bietti in 1954. The book has no ISBN printed, sorry - didn't invent it yet ? Title of the book is "Ancora...e poi basta!". It has been a present to my dauther from a friend of mine working in the used book market (il Conte).
• Pioggia - [it]
  A short rhyme written by Laura Santilli at the age of 10.
