Drink a coke with you

Federica Pervito.Jan 14, 2021
Drinking a coke with you is more fun than to go to San Sebastian, Irun, Bianitz, Bayonne or getting sick in the middle of the Traversera de Gracia in Barcelona partly because with this orange shirt you look like Saint Sebastian, but more credible, happier partly for the love I bring you, partly for the love you bring to yogurt partly because of the orange of the fluorescent tulips surrounding the birch trees partly because of the discretion with which we smile at each other if there are people or in front of statues when you are there I can hardly believe that there are things so immobile and so solemn as unpleasantly definitive as the statues and just when standing in front of them In the warm New York o'clock light we drift back and forth from one to the other like a breathing tree with glasses and among the portraits in the exhibition it seems that there isn't even a face, only colours so much so that you suddenly wonder why anyone ever painted them I look at you and I would rather go on looking at you than all the pictures in the world with the exception perhaps, sometimes, of the Polish Knight who is in any case at Frick and which thank goodness you haven't seen yet so we can be together the first time you see it and then with the fact that you are so beautiful in your movements we can almost do without Futurism and even at home I never think of the Nude Descending a Staircase nor, at the rehearsals, to this or that drawing by Leonardo or Michelangelo that once left me breathless and what purpose did all those experiments serve to the Impressionists? since they never found the right person to pose near a tree with the sun setting or if it gives me so much to Marino Marini who chose the horse well but not the rider I would say that everyone missed out on an experience wonderful but it won't go to waste with me and that's why I'm telling you about it. - Frank O'Hara

Normality is overrated

Federica Pervito.Jan 14, 2021
Alda Merini , perhaps no one will know who she is or what she did, but for us she represents a cornerstone of this beautiful experience that Mon Cheri is giving us, that you are giving us. Small pearls steeped in feminism and self-love will be made available day by day in our blog. And Alda himself recited: ''Who decides who is normal? The normality it's an invention of those who lack imagination."
