Nella recensione sul "New York Times" della Famiglia Savage, Manohla Dargis cita una poesia di Philip Larkin, This Be The Verse. Fiorenza ha trovato il testo completo (lo leggete qui sotto) e lancia una proposta: sceglierlo come materiale per il prossimo laboratorio di poesia, allargando per una volta la prospettiva da Madri e figlie a Genitori e figli/e.
They fuck you up your mum and dad.
The may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you wih the faults tey had
And add some extra, just for you.
But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another's throats.
Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don't have any kids yourself.
