Dalla Prefazione di Gianpiero Menniti: [...] La poesia riassume in sé il potere salvifico della parola: concentra su un immenso punto di luce l'impossibilità dei sensi. Così, percorre l'unica strada possibile, quella "aporetica" che attraversa i sentieri della memoria e da lì scruta l'immagine per ricostruirne il movimento nell'immobilità, il pensiero dell'istante nello sguardo pietrificato [...]In questa contraddizione vive la parola poetica che Angela Ada Mantella sottopone al più profondo dei giudizi, quello con la coscienza che non ha più scampo quando ingaggia il confronto con il sentimento struggente della caduta nel silenzio, con la disperata utopia, insofferente nel dialogo animato attorno al principio di realtà.Allora, per l'autrice, il ricordo di un padre come è stato Antonio Mantella, vulcanico imprenditore, dirigente lungimirante, uomo di principi saldi e sentimenti profondi, non sfiora mai riflessi retorici: è pura testimonianza di un legame ancestrale, irrimediabile e vissuto fino in fondo.E si tratta di una testimonianza coraggiosa perché limpida anche nelle sue fragilità e nei suoi lampi di furore inesplicabili, fino alla maturazione di un effimero eppure saldo spiraglio: quello nella natura come evidenza che abbraccia il tutto, la natura, "physis", quello sfondo immutabile 'che nessun dio e nessun uomo fece' nell'espressione eraclitea.- In copertina una fotografia di Antonio Mantella, scomparso nel 2022.

Prima silloge di poesie inedite e frammenti in prosa firmata Valeria Girardi. Una raccolta acerba e spontanea che dischiude una confessione intima ispirata dai sentimenti, dai ricordi e da vicissitudini autobiografiche. I versi trovano voce in un canto libero e naturale, in uno sfogo attraverso il quale la penna tenta di alleviare il dolore e di superare i momenti di nostalgia. Come una sorta di "poesia di formazione", la raccolta si sviluppa attraverso l'evoluzione interiore dell'autrice e nel suo viaggio nella depressione. La poesia assume così anche funzione terapeutica, e si rivolge a tutti coloro che non hanno paura di guardarsi dentro.

Subconscious Suicide Notes is one person's experience through trauma, the grief of losing their father, and the overwhelming facets of life.

POEM ATTICS is not a book of poetry. It is the future of poetry! EACH POEM can be read andinterpreted as TWO POEMS!!! QUANTUM POETRY! As usual, one can read the text across an entire line, horizontally, until it's finished on the farthest point of the right side of the page and then, skipping down to the next line of verse in normal fashion. On the other hand... the structure of the poetry allows for another reading order, patterned out of two or more columns per poem. This provides the reader with a second option by following the multiple columns in the poem vertically down to its bottom line and then skipping back to the top of the next column! Also, the poetry is also composed to form shapes for images as pictures! Every poem hangs on the page like paintings in a gallery. This further compounds the themes, adding aesthetic to the overall feel of the book, itself! The text is literally a maze of words with multiple avenues to navigate through each poem! Alive and animated, POEM ATTICS is a treasure map illustrated with words, riddled by unique imagery, and colored with emotion! It's like an exhibit of Picasso, M.C. Etcher, and Salvador Dali's art fused with the renegade spirit of Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, E. E. Cummins, and Edgar Allen Poe! Having taken 25 YEARS to complete, POEM ATTICS covers a lifelong voyage of struggles and conquests to explore a myriad of emotional complexities contained within the human condition! There's an explosive range of themes expressed in this poetry, from the technological advancements of modern life to historically romanticized representations of love, loss, humor, and pain. From the budding adolescent mind to the deeply versed scholar, there's something for everyone to connect with in POEM ATTICS!

La giovinezza è l'età delle speranze, dei sogni e delle attese, in cui tutto è ancora da scoprire e da inventare, anche se agli occhi entusiastici di chi si affaccia alla vita sembra già conosciuto ed evidente."Primi versi" rispecchia questo mondo interiore che trova espressione nelle parole, capaci di offrire uno spazio di intima libertà nell'apparente banalità del quotidiano.Nascono così le prime poesie di Andrea Polesana, scritte tra il 1996 ed il 2005: dalla spontaneità di chi inizia ad esprimere le proprie emozioni affidandole "all'ascolto della carta", paziente e fedele confidente.Una necessità di scrivere mai assopita quella dell'autore e, a distanza di anni, fogli ormai ingialliti riaffiorano come ricordi dalla memoria. Il tempo regala una prospettiva diversa che permette di trovare in quegli scritti, tra ingenua consapevolezza e inconsapevole ingenuità, il ritratto di stagioni quasi dimenticate.

Fireflies burn bright and die quickly.This is how we should live-like tiny lanterns winging aroundilluminating the dark, not trying to conquer it. There is a reality we all search for-one of true insight, where we feel the inner glow of connection to God, nature and life in all its splendor. Essential Astonishments answers the soul's longing to speak with intimacy about the bliss and bewilderment of the human experience. This provocative collection of mystic poetry holds nothing back in elucidating the awe of being alive, facing the shadow, moving through pain, and arriving at a place of reverence for the simplest things. Some of the poems read as though rendered straight from the voice of our Creator. Others are the poets' personal testimonies to the higher meaning of faith, love, truth, grief, dignity, death, presence, home, ambition, inwardness, beauty, belonging, freedom, prayer, poetry itself-and, ultimately, awakening. Altogether, these poems deliver an insistent call to action at this epochal time in human history. Each verse encourages us to come to a place of honesty within ourselves and prioritize what is essential. Turn off your devices, open to any page, and dissolve into the flame of revelation . . . allowing these words to purify your senses and illumine your heart. Featuring original works by Gina Mazza, alongside poets Scott A. Terrell, Donna Knutson, Atul Ranchod, Meredith Lowry and Gershon Mitchel. "Astonishment is the quintessence of life fully expressed. Yet it is something we cannot will ourselves to feel. This is where poetry-the epitome of word play-steps in, suspends us above the daily drift of ordinariness, and alights that spark of awe. It beseeches us to question everything. Every verse, versus, vice versa insists that we stop and revere the nuances of this human experience-to see beauty and grace in the pain and chaos. Poetry encourages us to be wilder in the midst of bewilderment. For this reason, it is an essential tool for experiencing the ephemeral nature of life and the One who created it all." -Gina Mazza
