In choosing the title of his anthology, tells us how he lived his period of uncertainty, for "Moments" for a moment he preferred "Catharsis," but it seemed a title with too many claims, and then opted for "Moments" as essential to defend a lexicon.
Yes "Moments" seemed an appropriate title. Perhaps my uneasiness the sublime through this research, which is not only poetic, creative, but also existential.
His preface is smooth, tidy. Several lines later we read that his poems are free from restrictions, for his failure to comply with certain rules. Specifies that his poems are not haiku because they do not comply with the scheme even though the 5-7-5 syllable haiku inspired. Then, to be seduced by another definition, haisan, and writes, "can say so or say nothing." I read the three verses standing out in the middle of the first page of his anthology: "Last night it rained / Despite the sun / The pines are cool" and continues with "certainly something to tell him directly that he put his hand on the trunk." His anthology puts aside the appearance versistico-metric haiku but offers the same strong play of a painting and feel it. Three ways a frame. And 'the intent of his pay?
I do not know what my intention. I just try to translate the emotion that nature gives rise, through a particular form. The truth is that attracts me, seduces me the picture in front of me. So eloquent, so effective ...
Haisan in Japanese means "three." Japanese poetry is brilliant and light at the same time, but also dignified and essential. What finds himself in this type of pay?
I think the three verses reflect my way of being: essential and immediate. I do not like to dwell too much, unless the discussion is not m'appassioni.
Japanese Love poetry?
Japanese poetry ... I was thunderstruck. When I started to read this kind of poetry including the three verses that immediately responded to my nature, my way of being. I refined the shape through my travels, my wanderings ...
imagined a child to become a poet?
a door but do not consider myself a person who writes poems, which simply tries to capture the moments that lives. Besides writing, I do many other things. Reviewing my past I often notice that it has always cultivated a sense of aesthetics. Even in sad times, less happy. Well I have always tried (and sometimes found) my refuge.
You are a optimist or pessimist?
A person who tries to shake off the sadness, but at the same time to dampen the enthusiasm. I tend to my balance, which for me has always been a point of arrival, never a point of departure.
One of his verse says: "The summer ends / Poems of yesterday, today's poetry." Yes
This poem is a comparison, a summary of my route. And 'the tip of the iceberg, implies a life, a series of experiences ...
What do you think of the poet writes in electronic communication and web?
I do not know. I use the pen when I write and notebook, sometimes even a pencil and a piece of paper that I ask the first one to get.
love her for what?
Love? Something extremely complex, affecting the balance and cause insomnia .... In this regard I think I have a heterogeneous nature .... I can slowly go back to and find my way.
And friendship?
a fine line. Perhaps it is the basis of what we call love. I do not really like to differentiate, categorize, measure things.
What is your relationship with his land?
Beautiful. I am someone who takes root. The poems I write are as territorial people who attend. I love the Cilento, whom I consider my homeland, despite being born in Salerno. My open-mindedness is related to the novelty m'intriga only if it reflects the simplicity.
