Mutual Rebirths

By Lino Milita

Rebirths occur sometimes spontaneausly, due to events which require radical changes, and they can be wonderful for what life can offer more, or they can cause desperation for unespected occurences contingencies that take away everything, except those dark visions the future.
Fortune and engagement allow you the luxury of being reborn as adults, keeping the memories of your past. In this case, it is also necessary that the memories concerning the others and stored in ourselves have to be really in order to avoid a mere reproduction of what we were. The real rebirth needs the others and the support of those we had an intimate relathionship with. If we pursue a revival with not causing pain to anybody, we will be able to express feelings and deep desires: doing so, we will become truly adult, wiser and sincere.
This collection of 50 poems accompanied by pictures, some of them in color, wants the readers to think over the world, the human relationships and the wonders that every person carries within itself.

Lino Milita

My name is Lino Milita and I'm a poet.I started to write poems for the joke, many years ago . Those verses were only mine: kept me company. They were my personal way of expressing myself.At the beginning 2012, I began to write with more awareness, at the beginning 2012. The first period was the creation of artistic expression outside of me. I am myself the matter of my artistic expression, my emotions, my feelings, now. This is therefore a profound introspect, but it is released. I want to share. I can reveal to me with my verses.

Lino Milita

After my first book of poetry and images Sogni Sospesi (Hanging Dreams), here I am again with another appointment with myself, to propose you a new share of moods and events of everyday life.

The offer is discreet, because a rebirth denying the past and, with it, all the experiences affecting your life until now, cannot be considered a true rebirth. My assumption is that a revival is always collective, thus it may represent a genuine and radical transformation.

Translator's Note

Translating poetry is a challenging work when you have to render a metric rule in a different one, or to respect the original scheme of rhymes with dissonant alien nouns.

Lino Milita's poetry does not follow any metrical rule: thoughts and feelings induced by words are the only concern of the author, to suggest and recreate moods through discord and imbalance.

Nevertheless, his fondness for oxymoron, the use of discordant adjectives and the drift to hermetism that mark his poetry had to be restored in English carefully, avoiding to decrypt it either too much or too little, fleeing from a literal translation of Italian affected terms, absolutely odd in an English setting.

I hope you can enjoy this faithful translation and blame me alone for
