The drama of those who write on the walls

Let's face it: who, at least once, did not think the graffiti with a pinch of curiosity?

Rarely, in fact, there are complete sentences, be they political positions, declarations of love, expressions of concern, metaphysical thoughts ...

Most of the time you come across abbreviations, acronyms, strange patterns, twisted curlicues.


And then one asks, but what these four letters? What does it mean, this mysterious sign?

What thought has moved the hand of the writer? What a concept he wanted to get out of the bottle?

Who turns his message? The whole of society or a small group of initiates who are fortunate enough to speak in secret code to us, ordinary mortals, beyond the essential elements?

Unfortunately, the reality brings us back down to earth.

would be nice to think, that between us there is a new-generation owner of an innovative and expressive language.

The situation is different.

We look at the result of effort on the walls of a writer who wanted to try out a message of tolerance and friendship.

Or see what makes a fellow who will present his views on the institutions that govern the country.

Or, one that most boldly tries his hand for excellence in the use of foreign language, English.

We take note, sadly. These beings have evolved a code but, instead, moved on the walls of the guttural sounds they are capable. Every time I try to use a high-level language, they fail miserably.

A little 'as a child a few months but, contrary to these idiots, is destined to evolve.

PS these pictures were taken in Rome and Turin: two capitals continue to be united by a thread indissoluble.
