Little Guido

You laugh like mad
in front of the cathode
window of pixels,
in watching things,
upside-down life.
You adapt yourself head downwards
and it’s you, now,
the most comical unforeseen.
Irresistible calls
your laughter, the white teeth
shown resigned to emotion,
while you hold back with the arms
the abdomen, so that it doesn’t run off,
(goodness knows where)
for a moment the reason
rampant indeed
