Giovanni Raboni – L’iperbole / Hyperbole

Amedeo Modigliani, Nude on a Blue Cushion, 1917

The hyperbole you love,
the one you are: I love you
in the curve of your hips, 
in the void of your ribs.

(Transl. by D. Foglia)

L’ iperbole che ami,
quella che sei: t’ adoro
nella curva dei fianchi
nel niente del costato.
