Life in a suitcase: Lyrical aphorisms

By Raffaele Messinese

This collection of personal lyrical reflections on life, love and nature is the result of a long and troubled reworking of thoughts and phrases dedicated to real and/or virtual friends and their comments on social media. Some phrases-poems were born in the extemporaneous incubator of creative solitude. Calling them aphorisms alternately seemed belittling and emphatic, even ambitious, because in most cases I felt them grafted onto a lyrical trunk as they gushed out as pure meditation. The temptation of poetry, in its hermetic and symbolic vein, permeates many of these small compositions, which are also reflections on feelings and apparitions, in the form of fibrillations - of the big/little things of the world - as if they were new, unexpected, unexplored.
