The poem by Enzo Cucchi, published alongside his edition in Parkett no. 1, 1983, translated in English

Elegy
The smoke of Rome
wanders on
the legs of an ancient beast.
Our thousand year old
skeletons move along
noisily.
New York will hear us;
will see yet other dinosaurs
pushing their way on roof-tops?!
In the houses of Rome
one continues to breathe.
