Alghe arcaiche (Archaic Algae)

Archaic Algae
Ancient ancestors,
stretched out, then crumpled.
Still harmonious movements,
to the heartbeat rhythm of the waters,
create abstract choreographies.

Harbors never told,
primary air generators.
Archaic particles,
breaths and sighs for future ages.
Now they advance extended,
to the sound of small gas bubbles.

Simbiosi (Symbiosis)

Aquatic and earthly,
entities united and grown together.
A fulfilled, balanced, ideal coexistence.
A fruitful association,
fungal, algal.

Symbiotic branches,
tangling,
generate forces pushed to the limit.
Earthly and cosmic resistances,
enduring through boundless eras of time.
