Dreams of Suffering, a Poem by Dr. Abdeljabbar Choukri


There is no way out of complaining
Except seeing existence smiling
There is no solution of crying 
Except wiping the tears
There is no outlet of sadness 
Except to fill the soul with joy
There is no collapse of despair
Except you cling to hope
There is no way to get rid of depression 
Except by indulging in laughter
There is no pleasure in life 
Except the giving of love
There is no no and no 
And there is except, 
Except and except

But in a moment of the time
I go to embrace the night 
I complain to it  my worries
I Bring back my memories 
From the past since my childhood
I find nothing only fluctuations in feelings
I find nothing only fluctuations in behavior
I find nothing only fluctuations in promises

I Remember when l was a child
My mother tells me Arab stories
One Thousand and One Nights
About Shahrayar and Scheherazade
About the enchanted palace
About Beauty of princess and the Beast

I find myself navigating 
In my mother's stories in Arab tales
She talks to me and talks to me 
until I fall asleep in deep sleep

Three Poems by Irena Dragoti

Absence of Mother

Evening is coming: I catch my breath
a branch of basil, or a little menderz
hide under the pillow
to sprout dreams with longing wings
from the Motherland,
for Mother...
Her shadow is white on my hair;
absence like a good cough,
lasts three months
and repeated four times.
Memories are signs,
that the past has chased me away.
I undid the fetus from the girl.
I live it divided between two sunsets.
I surrendered to the drying up of prayers.
My mother was taken hostage
from thought,
that I didn’t win all the battles
to keep him alive.
Wherever I open the leaves, mother’s grave
it is the chain that keeps me connected to the roots.
I am not the ideal daughter...

Invisible

In this big city without a center
the walking beauty
tiptoe, on the empty streets
it is not news...
She is like a shooting star
the day for the sun,
without any desire in the arms.

How did I know?
That beauty here is not presence
but a whirl in the orbits of the self;
an unspoken word knows how much...
It is a mist that hangs in the sky
hide the roads,
wear the light...
... conveyed by missing eyes
and until the desire for the parade dies
don’t ask him where he was...
I’m sorry, about the roads.

Damn World 

The dead sleep
the last sleep.
With the tombstone, time knocks.

The living do not speak
and at the edge of the dilemma
the neuron of oblivion, knocking on the bed.

The wise measure
with skin tone
a lost battle, bottom line.

The fools don’t stop
with the power of emptiness.
They overcome courage, without being afraid of fate.

Humanity sees obliquely.
It is the age of retreat;
the twenty-first century, the devil’s march.

And the world burns;
he lost his words
under the wet palate...

The world is dams;
how close his age is ?!
Let me rest, I’m embarrassed.

Two Poems in Spanish by Estela Voscoboinik

Ensueño (A Vincent Van Gogh)
Titilan los astros
en alas
de estrellas,
envuelven la noche
solitaria
en un lienzo
de luciérnagas;
vibra una marea
de nubes
con pincel de cometas;
cielo infinito
en sueños coloreados
por cipreses erguidos
y azuladas candelas.
Titilan los astros
en alas
de estrellas,
resguardan la luna
en armonía
de olivares
de ondulada tibieza.

Luz de mar

Al costado
de la luna
sueñan espigas
de ámbar;
por la orilla clara,
camino descalza,
sobre aromas
de lavanda;
encuentro tus ojos
en el umbral sereno
de una mirada
cálida.
Brillan candelas
por el sendero azul
de una noche
solitaria;
palpita una sonrisa
en los trinos
del agua mansa.
Al costado
de la luna
sueñan espigas
de ámbar;
florecen caracolas
por la huella
silenciosa
de gaviotas
de cielo,
sobre el rumor
dorado
de la espuma blanca.

Astrit Lulushi : Writer of Recognized International Talent

By Maria Teresa Liuzzo
(Director of the International Culture magazine LE MUSE - Italy)
 
A writer of recognized international talent, a multifaceted, versatile and sensitive person, with an intense interiority, whose talents he knows how to express through an unspeakable docility to the moments that emanate inspiration. / Crumbs of dreams / I don't know where the day is born / and where the evening dies. / Fill the sky with tears and words / like the sea that goes and then returns. / I close my eyes when / the wind caresses me with your hands / I kiss your caress and embrace your pain. An ideal that stands between metaphysical experience and reality in the concreteness of what his writing suggests. The essential and primordial elements of nature are captured, such as the sun, the sky, the sea in its symbolism that evokes mystery and depth, and multiplicity with languages ​​and meanings that refer to aesthetic thought almost to a catechesis of beauty, of the sublime; as an ultimate goal it spreads in the light of creation of which being is a part and coincides with the immensity that the beauty of its art and the infinite mystery summarizes. A demanding beauty that merges with the divine that meets domestic, everyday beauty that can be read, understood, codified in the literacy of a hidden truth; a beauty that provokes the emotion of reason with the fruitfulness that it also suggests to anthropology and philosophy in its various and articulated streams of theoretical reflection. A reflection that places itself between the ideal as a metaphysical experience and the real in concreteness. Love is capable of creating poetry in the most unexpected moments, poetry envelops it in a silent pain that becomes catharsis, perhaps because the pain must be mourned before it can be overcome. The splendor was realized by flickering the shadows on his face, on his features as a man. His word burns perhaps because he has something that others don't have. His verse is precise and impeccable, in that painful silence that I picked up like a rose in the immensity. The choices of the Writer Astrit Lulushi are made with caution and meditation. All you need to do is identify with his words, ultimately live them. We waste precious time that could make our real life a different existence. It's like throwing dice and trusting fate, making our existence a game of chance. You can win, enjoy or cheat. No one knows what will happen next, as no one can predict the future or have a preliminary appointment with destiny. But the Writer emerges victorious. By struggling and suffering he found himself. He crossed the ''dark'' night and traveled towards different and certainly better horizons. Nothing is lost when you truly live. In his verses there is a sleepless night of pain left under the skin, which has served over time to make him know the direction of the wind and to find himself in a place of the heart that he had not foreseen, which has allowed him to discover the sea where there is no 'And. Because it is inherent in the eyes and in the heart. We know that when someone or something (poem) pays attention to us it brings us back to life. Those who are not in love with beauty, justice and wisdom are incapable of thinking. - The equation is not good for the wind in love among the ears. ''And I like to be silent because I want / again and always to listen to you''. It is enough to focus our gaze on the deep roots that resemble erotic natures and give us the sense of the infinite. The aim of this great Artist is not to persuade, but to make people reflect, have passion and honesty for the reason that distinguishes us from the beasts. The word is a body that transmits desire, perdition, madness like a breathless race that fills the lungs with air. The word supports us, it becomes love. It is wisdom that generates harmony woven from the melody of a divine song. The word allows us to express moods and feelings to be expressed, at times, with the difficulty of revealing the intensity and powerful strength of love. The love that allows one to go outside of oneself, yet revealing a minimum of what love itself induces one to feel. I looked for a ''YOU'' to complete my ''I''. In ''Tu'' I feel joy and emotion together with sensations that find an echo in a transfiguring and almost cathartic dimension of myself. You accompany me in the fulfillment of this profound human and interior experience together. You can get close to the truth but not possess it in full. Perfection does not exist. It's like the lie that was crafted to perfection. Everything that is perfect is dead, as finished when reality becomes narration because writing listens to your words and loves you as you are. Astrit Lulushi has been a writer since the beginning he unintentionally builds the myth of himself. Here it is preferable to remove his characteristics, since, if on the one hand it is the writer who feels the false writer is different from himself, on the other hand there is the recognized artistic genius, master of 20th century prose and bringer of a style which in its brevity and incisiveness represents the most significant and innovative expression of the 20th century and beyond. His is an extraordinary style for its ability to evoke with a few words, a few strokes, the hidden reality, the reality that the reader can intuit through the text, the reality hidden within each of us, the one we don't usually look at, the one we are afraid to confess, the one we don't repeat to ourselves when we are alone for fear that someone might hear us. That reality where we know little about ourselves and history because without it our everyday life would be meaningless. He is therefore the singer of our unacknowledged self, the singer who says the things that neither we nor others have the courage to say. The Writer describes the blood of war, of nature, of wounded animals, of flagellations, of genocides, which from a psycho-dynamic point of view is nothing other than internal discomfort and tormented suffering. We find a somewhat desperate life mechanism which is that of the tunnel and on the other the sublimating mechanism of his literary work in which the desire to fly and to be able to perpetuate oneself beyond the destruction of the physical body is expressed. A writing that goes beyond the contingent and in the particular sense of Astrit Lulushi must be projected beyond time and space. His writing also has the ability to attract female beauty to the highest degree because if it word cannot be possessed cannot be loved. Even in this dialectic between the power of possessing and the impotence of reality, the drama of the double is played out. In this, the overcoming of internal discomfort is not overcome through mechanisms of self-destruction, but it is through an internal push that mechanisms of sublimation are received. In fact, this extraordinary person has well overcome this long critical phase because writing has become his woman, his support, someone in which to reflect himself; even a thought can be considered the entity of a friendly voice, so as not to die alone with no one beside you. Certain phenomena have crossed the writer's life and retain a part of themselves. A clarifying process that will ensure that each of us can reach ''that enlightened place'', which can guarantee us a place in the human sphere. Prose and poetry then increasingly become witnesses of the time, taking a stand on the most significant global problems. Writing becomes news that records the event and its memory (war, repression, attacks), takes on new registers: the sarcasm of indignation, the invective of protest, the prophetic tone, the rhetorical questioning. The word becomes turgid, excited, eloquent, bordering on political-religious oratory. In him the need to shout his belief is too alive and bursting, and like a new Savonarola, he expresses his fiery condemnation. His is a message of peace, of justice as an instrument capable of transform Society and give a new course to History, far from the experience of hatred that divides in the name of a God who should be there but is not seen. Every word of Astrit Lulushi is a work that opens up to a universal global vision. His writing is also painting. In it, an ego shines through, at times irrational, which escapes to sink into its ''inner dawn'' and offer us cosmic images immersed in abstract atmospheres. Precious icons that tell the meaning of the human and the divine in an expressive, extraordinary language (his alone), which we could define for its uniqueness: ''metamorphosis of the non-limit''. If we looked at the images upside down we would see a glass of hopes that give each work a great lyrical significance. This great series of apocryphal and imaginative episodes tend to represent man's disorientation in the face of the total epiphany of the Sacred, his immense and abysmal wound - A revelation of Sacredness which, as in Pasolini's Theorem, exposes all fears, the cowardice and hypocrisies of human beings. A writing therefore, that of Astrit Lulushi, which increasingly becomes a witness of the time, taking a stand on the most significant world problems. In Lulushi the topos is the organic and rational theorization both in philosophical writings and in novels. The conclusion is that if the evil (malaise, anguish, discomfort) cannot be eliminated, it can however be counteracted through denunciation, protest, condemnation of violence and war, of social injustice, all factors that generate the ''mal de vivre'' and, in extreme cases even through suicide. An attentive and rapt look could lead us to talk about a theology of beauty that emanates from the observations of its concepts. And I add, referring to hermeneutics, epistemology, axiology: Astrit Lulushi, is beyond the Platonic hyperuranium! A man who doesn't like the spotlight and the only quality he recognizes is modesty. As Augustine of Hippo says: ''Enter yourself, there you will find the light''. Despite the human drama we perceive there is also a reality made of dreams. Often in silence the word is violated but absence makes presence. The mystery of the other is welcomed. Another dimension is discovered, the one that managed to complete us. Because whoever has a heart as big as our writer Astrit Lulush cannot help but possess an immense soul.

[Astrit Lulushi]

Night, a Poem by Emmanuel Mettles

Lights are off to slumber.
Weary are the lives.
I stop here, 
I stop here,
Stop! 
Here, under this last lamp post.
Seeking the beginning of night.

No one passes by,
No one passes by.
Except an old wood cutter from an ancient tale.
 He cut no woods,
He hushed a cry,
" I cut the heads,
I cut,
I cut!
The heads of a thousand silver firs!

Late fisherman's call is trudging towards the hill,
For fisherman is late,
Late and lost his skiff.
And his shack kept awake!

The path wriggled beneath the night,
Tales of the footsteps evansce.
No tales to be told,
No tunes to be sung..
No tunes to be sung..

I wish for a star,
A tiniest, speck of distant light..
A crumb of laughter,
A dropful of morrow, 
A mo,
A mo to dine on death!

Two Poems by Astrid Lulushi 

Translated and interpreted by Maria Teresa Liuzzo (LE MUSE-ITALY’ s International Art and Culture Editor)


The Destiny 
 
The’s no point in stopping 
in the shade  of a tree
And complaining about life’s tragedies 
Not even take the side of the good 
or the bad because  
with the passage of time 
one could be more miserables 
than the other. 
We are born and die alone 
no one take about our martyrdom
 
Some lucky peole have aunts 
who welcome them 
like their neighbors 
when they are alone.
The rain unleashes  its wrath 
on the houses , on the trees, 
on the thoughts scouring them
The belly becomes even more violent 
with the weak and the righteous 
as the storm does with 
the clouds if the wind is against it
 
The evil is who has never known misery
The pang of hunger
The heart felt cry of a child
The desperate mother’s prayer
He’s the one who never 
has wished for anything 
he did not already have 
I’ve never been lucky, 
let the sadness be mine alone, at least

Beyond Patience  
 
Time passing is a cancrenous river
The bodies are fossils 
of those who have despoiled
the people  depriving them of all rights
 
They are sharks and jackals 
disguised as helpless
Man the son of the world 
watched and was silent by day
and was  blinded by night  
 
BURGOSA was killed 
because he wanted 
to dream a better future 
to be free as  God created him 
whatever his dream was.
Those like him, instead 
have been destabilized
Frustrated like horses 
by their beast
 They slaughtered them to shreds.
Experience teaches us not 
to trust anyone but often  too late we 
have to believe in something 
or someone to live 
otherwise we will never be able 
to distinguish right from wrong 
 
Most people are good  
believe in family and live 
as best they can .
Bad people exist and will always exist
Because evil never kills itself
You meet them on your way 
suffering will be your lamp 
and enlightens you 
it will make you sure
you can know the healty fruit 
from the sick one. 
So that you can live your life 
in freedom and with joy 
with love.

Only in this way 
will you find happiness  
you who have alwys lived 
as a prisoners
you will be able 
to savor the taste of freedom
 
Always stay on your guard 
against the vultures every thing 
that is beatyful can something 
be deadly life deceive us 
and we can’t do anything
too many people love violence 
and violent sports
 
He slows when he sees a car overturned 
on the edge of the ravine 
as in were a scene from a movie.
The same people love the box 
for no reason at all
They ignore that in the violence 
of the blows
There is also the courage
 of the challenge.
It is tge defeca that surrenders to victory without reaching death
Perhaps the most important thing 
would be for a warrior to have a heart 
inside the chest. 
If this were the case 
every man would rise 
from hope and embrace peace.
A man’s strenght of flight beyond patience 
where others have failed.
It is the light that makes you see 
beyond that dream, 
that no one can see but you
Sometimes people 
don’t want to understand
they don’t have eyes 
to see and they get lost 
in the darkness of life 
like a rootless tree.
