[bodytext] => From where I'm standing i can see a woman dressed in black; She leans her back on the wall; writes a letter on a piece of fabric. A beggar passes by, leaves a coin on her feet. He walks; asks from me his coin back. An old man throws it at me, the beggar grasps it in his palm. Passively he sits at the corner of the street takes out his hat puts the coin in, crosses his legs...waits.. I turn..I look at the woman She has changed her dress; its colour is blue. I feel her sorrow and his inside me as one. A tear, from my left eye, falls on my cheek. The woman wipes it out gently with her silk dress. She leaves the letter on my hands; asks from me to deliver it to the beggar.
