There is nothing mundane if we have the eyes to see. The truth of our existence is everywhere. The artist helps us by capturing a moment of that truth. That is where their fame and talent lies.
The truth I see here is wonderful. If a story can be expressed from this momentary vision it might be something like this:
"Elio, why do you follow me? Wherever I go you seem to find me. If I am walking on the road alone you come there and try to talk with me. Sometimes you even block my way. If I am with my girl friends you come with your boy friends.
Like the the other day we were by the river getting ready to take a swim and all of a sudden there you were with Alessio and Mateo. When we stepped into the water you and your friends also stepped in and began to splash us and we had to fight back with splashing water.
II try to get away from you I am not able to. The sound of your voice immobilizes me. If I look into your eyes I become stunned like looking into a bright light. If you touch my hand I am drawn close to.
Now here I am on the way to Ariana's house and you are here again. How can I get anything done if you are always wanting my attention? Plus people are already talking. It is not good since my father wants me to marry Luca his friend's son.
But I have to admit I no know pleasure or happiness other than you. I think you have some magical power. Or else some magical power is flowing through you. I can't be with you and I also can't be without you.
But for now let me go to Ariana. She needs help milking the cow."
