Hello everyone,
Here is my unpublished poem on abstract love that was inspired after watching a film.
The Mount of Ants*
You and I,
Like the Italian winged ants,
Flew to the mountain of love and poetry.
There you embraced me,
You died, and I
Was filled with you and poetry.
Now I give birth to you every day,
You are born every day,
and I am in pain every day.
*Il monte delle formiche, a documentary movie by Riccardo Palladino:
For centuries, every year, every summer, on September 8th, swarms of winged ants travel to the "Mount of Ants” in Italy, where they mate in flight: the impregnated female ones create new colonies while the male ants die in the ground, at the foot of the sanctuary built on the top of this mountain and dedicated to “Our Lady of The Ants”.
