Two Hunters: For a Friend and a Crow

For a Friend
and a Crow

for Paolo

For a Friend
and a Crow

Mid-morning, sitting in new
snow with an old friend;

an eagle flies by with a crow
on its tail.

Above, below -- with two begins
the movement of our world. Per un Amico
e una Cornacchia

Tarda mattina, seduto sulla
neve fresca con un vecchio amico.

Un aquila vola con una cornacchia
alla coda.

Sopra e basso -- due cose, inizia
cosi il movimento del nostro mondo.

composed upon request for a good friend, and translated together with him, while on a solo trek
over the south ridge of the Italian Alps.)
