AA.VV, Di fuoco e di fiamme, 2023

Fire classifies:
at first all the flames go some way… (Only the gait of animals can be compared to that of fire: it has to leave one place to occupy another; it walks like an amoeba and like a giraffe together, leaps with its neck, crawls with its foot)… Then, as the methodically contaminated masses collapse, the gases released mutate as they go into a single flap of butterflies.
