Vanity Suddenly the limpid stupor of the immensity towers...

Quote by Giuseppe Ungaretti about vanity, proudness, shadow, sun, water, man

Vanity

Suddenly
the limpid
stupor
of the immensity
towers
above the debris

And the man
bent
over the water
surprised
by the sun
discovers
a shadow

Wafting in pieces and
gently
floating away

Giuseppe Ungaretti
