Symptoms Of Uterine Polyps

The disappearance of fireflies - vol.1

of Pier Paolo Pasolini
by the "Corriere della sera" of 1 February 1975


In the early sixties, due to air pollution, and especially in the countryside, due to pollution of the water (the clear blue rivers and irrigation ditches) are the fireflies begin to disappear. The phenomenon was lightning and lightning. After a few years, the fireflies were gone. (I am now a memory, quite heartbreaking, of the past and an old man who has such a memory, can not recognize itself in the new young young, and therefore can not have regrets of a good time).
That "something" that happened a decade ago, therefore I will call the "disappearance of fireflies."
Democracy Democrats who opposed the anti-fascists fascist dictatorship, was shamelessly formal. It was based on a
absolute majority of votes obtained by the huge layers of middle-class and peasant masses, managed by the Vatican.
The "values" nationalized "and then falsified the old world agricultural and paleocapitalistico, suddenly no longer matter. Church, home, family, obedience, order, economy, morality does not count anymore.
All my readers will certainly noticed the change of the powerful Democrats: in a few months, they have become the funeral masks. True, they continue to unleash radiant smiles, sincerity incredible. In their eyes is the real cakes, happy light in a good mood. When it is not dell'ammiccante light of wit and mischief. What the voters like that, it seems, as complete happiness. Furthermore, our powerful continue undeterred their incomprehensible rants, which float in the "flatus vocis" promises the usual stereotypes. In reality they are just masks. I am sure that, to raise those masks, he is not even a heap of bones and ashes, there would be nothing, emptiness. The explanation is simple: now actually in Italy there is a dramatic power vacuum. But that's the point: not a lack of legislative or executive, not a vacuum of power management, or, finally, a vacuum of political power in any traditional sense. But a lack of power itself.
How have we come to this emptiness? Or, rather, "how come there are men of power?".
