Dannate memorie di un becchino
by Mariano Stia
Like a kite of colorful fabrics, poetry floats in the air. Memories, personal truths and feelings are exhumed by an undertaker who caresses them and places them, like an old burial, on the sheet of life. A poem without metrics and without rules, hidden by an allegorical language, changing in the eyes of everyone. Powerful and at the same time fascinating, like music which, according to Mozart, is already among the notes, even poetry is already among the words. You just need to know how to read it. A journey through arduous hairpin bends and sinuousness of a tumultuous and conflicting nature that gives voice to Innominate poems that overlook the abyss of memories, existential crises, of women in whom he hoped or melted his heart.
