Friedrich, Pilgrim in a Sea of Fog

"I am doing this act to see what there is after death and who is right. In this world there is little hope for young people, and I hope that my gesture will help the world to realize that we exist too, with our problems.
I ask my parents' forgiveness; they have always loved me very much and never let me want for anyhting.
I ask the forgiveness also of the school authorities, who are not to blame.
My last wish is to be cremated. Goodbye."
Alberto

 Desire,
I have dragged
you through the streets
I have left you lonely in the fields,
I have got you drunk in the cities,
I have got you drunk without
slaking your thirst,
I have got you wet on moonlit nights,
I have taken you everywhere,
I have rocked you on the waves,
I tried to put you to sleep in the flux,
desire, desire what is it you want?
When will you get tired?
Field


I am always fascinated by the sky, whether it's clear, cloudy, or starry. The sky, with its inconstancy and its infinite greatness, gives me a sense of power, and at the same time, of freedom, the freedom I don't have at school and don't find at home.

Experimentally, we feel free to satisfy a wish. But not being free for a weekend, an evening, not only being free in one-hundred, two-hundred, a thousand occasions, but always; being free, free, that is, freedom.
Following the indication of experience, it is clear that freedom appears to us as total satisfaction, total fulfillment of the self, as witnessed by the dramatic cry of Alberto (who committed suicide last March, among the desks at school).
