Lento “Icon” (2011)

Creeping slowly right under the volcanic sand of the wasteland, the thing gets nearer and nearer to my feet.

(*)

I’m lying on my back, unable to move.
I see nothing, but I can feel movements around me.
I can’t talk, but I can smell the staleness in the air.
Actually, I don’t even know if it’s air what I’m breathing.
And I don’t even know if I’m breathing at all.

The pressure on my skin resembles the feeling you have while being underwater.
Still, looks like I’m perfectly able to think.
Cogito ergo sum, right? I mean, I can’t be dead.

(*)

The telephone rings one, two, three times. A woman answers.
“Yes.”
“I’m done.”
“Fine.”

(*)

Creeping slowly right under the volcanic sand of the wasteland, the thing gets nearer and nearer to my feet.
As it touches me, I feel like burning.
