The best prove about God's existence comes when you are walking on the street with the feeling that you are the king of the world, a kind of post modern Tony Manero and then you watch the reflection of your own image on any window. Then you start to walk watching the floor.

Saturday night, almost 4:30 AM. I was in my friend's car after a barbecue and some beers. I was tired and sleepy and I just wanted to see my bed and forget about the rest of the world. But the world didn't want it.

We were close to a very lonely part, close to our homes. A dark corner close to an old railway. The kind of gray, deserted, poor, dangerous part that any city have. When I have to walk in places like that I do that in the fastest way possible, but in a car is different. That kind of heavy armor gives you the feeling that anything else is outside and the only communication with the exterior comes on the shape of red and green lights. No cold, no danger, no loneliness.

I saw a kid walking at that time. He was no older than 12 years old. The red light asked us to make a break. Them the kid reached my window and he made the typical gesture for ask a cigarette. I saw his face. Clearly he was on drugs.

He wasn't the person who ask for a cigarette like we ask for the salt on the table. He was asking for calm because the dose was part of his past in some point of the night, like his childhood. I saw him and I remembered my own life experience. At his age my life was still so naive. Pass the school year with the best good grades and receive a nice present of Christmas was my only worry. My free times were full of good memories running behind a football ball. That kid just wanted a cigarette. His home was far a way. We didn't have anything and when the light said green we went away from that corner. We stayed on silence during the rest of the night.

I wish to be the favorite one for all the muses.

I wish to be a foreigner in all the places in the world. All the time strange, exotic, a nice ornament to have.

I wish to be upright, absent, amoral.

I wish to be a good reason to wait for.

A planet, a continent, a country, a flag. An Anthem who can give hope, peace, warmth.

I wish to be a magician who can create and control the world and the people just using some spells.

I wish to be as deep, dark, vast, meaningful and mysterious as the sea.

I wish to be your bed, your shelter, your watchman.

A shield, a castle, a spear.

The wealthiest man on the earth. The greatest leader. The most saint. The worst sinner.

I wish to be a good excuse.
