Leonard Cohen / Michael Parkes | Questo è per te.../ This is for you

Questo è per te

è il mio intero cuore

è il libro che ti avrei letto

quando fossimo stati vecchi

Adesso sono un'ombra

Sono senza pace come un impero

Michael Parkes

René Magritte: "The purpose of art is mystery"

"To be a surrealist means barring from your mind all remembrance of what you have seen, and being always on the lookout for what has never been".

"Essere surrealisti significa escludere dalla tua mente ogni ricordo di ciò che hai visto ed essere sempre alla ricerca di ciò che non è mai stato".
