love alone doesn't put food

her parting words taken
by the winter gust

in my dream
this blurry silhouette ...
waves of time
flood her footprints

fascist salutes
FYI: NBC News, Jan.9: Outrage in Italy after hundreds give fascist salute at a rally in Rome
The rally was held in front of the former headquarters of a post-war neo-fascist party called the Italian Social Movement (MSI), which gave root to the Brothers of Italy party now led by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.
Meloni came to power in 2022 as Italy’s first female prime minister at the head of a coalition, giving the country its most right-wing government since World War II. She praised Mussolini in her youth but has since changed her stance and said there was “no space” in her party “for nostalgia for fascism, racism or antisemitism.”
