a sliding dark cloud
silence not to write about
yet, swallow your wordsthere's a saying in italian, from a 17th century opera: "un bel tacer non fu mai scritto" (a beautiful "not talking" has never been written about).
It's an invite to just shutting up when you're gonna say something bad or stupid (Ironically, that's not the meaning in the actual opera, AFAICT)
Curiously, English doesn't seem to have a single word for "staying in silence".

#dailyhaikuprompt - quiet@riffraff No, but English does have a word for "doesn't say very much" - which looks like it is related to the italian: taciturn.

Mezzogiorno d’inverno di Umberto Saba (Trieste, 1883 – Gorizia, 1957)
In quel momento ch’ero già felice
(Dio mi perdoni la parola grande
e tremenda) chi quasi al pianto spinse
mia breve gioia? ... https://cctm.website/umberto-saba-mezzogiorno-dinverno/#umbertosaba #poesia #inverno #cctmwebsite #anoipiaceleggere #leggere

Ah je ne sais pas d'où elles sortent mais ce sont les préférées des voyous japonais, le japon étant un pays où il est extrêmement mal élevé de porter des lunettes de soleil et mal supporté par la population.

@andre123 ok letto anche se a pezzi
Non ho gli strumenti per dire o riconoscere se tutto sia effettivamente così, ma certo in tante cose mi ritrovo«La formula molto accurata di Michel Clouscard — "tutto è permesso, ma nulla è possibile"»
Il rischio di implosione o esplosione c'è
