There must have been Joy in Madrid
Il carnevale impazzava, le ballerine mostravano tette e culi alla marmaglia fitta e zavorrata sulla pedana posta lievemente più in alto rispetto alla pista da ballo.
La festa continuava nelle vene mista all’alcool che si stemprava tra i cubetti di ghiaccio alla base del bicchiere e la bibita da quattro soldi come edulcorante.
Al Joy sembrava tutto così gioioso, in realtà solo falsi sorrisi e fronti imperlate da gocciole di sudore; una vecchia checca, stanca e spiaggiata su un divanetto tra il tavolino e la colonna, al riparo da sguardi indiscreti, si lasciava andare in un dormiveglia mentre il brasiliano, di almeno trent’anni più giovane, si slacciava la camicetta del tutto inadeguata a contenere i muscoli pettorali.
Accanto, le fidanzatine si lasciavano in un gioco inequivocabile tra struscii e baci perversi per eccitare i rispettivi partner già infoiati dalle semplici movenze e dalle trasparenze della seta.
Là, nella pista, il desiderio di trovare una storia si infrangeva contro quel muro di solitudine ineluttabilmente eretto per la pochezza di spirito.
Tutto questo al Joy: avresti voluto gioia, un colpo di reni in questa vita di merda, ma niente. Il sorriso si incurvava verso il basso; le sopracciglia si corrugavano; il volto non disteso. Accettavi anche quella musica mediocre, proprio tu, che in altre occasioni l’avresti aborrita per una più sofisticata e per nulla melodica, sì, di quelle tunz tunz da trapanarti il cervello.
Speravi che il cuba libre ti liberasse, ti elevasse, ma eri lì a sgomitare, accaldato, assonnato e inconsolabile, al punto da rinunciare alla festosa iniziazione alla libertà. There must have been joy but you only found a grieved sorrow.
