Description
This new collection of poems by Avdyl Pilafi is not an x-ray impression of the current fashion, an x-ray of nature and of the trifles of reality. It is, instead, a poetic impression of a disturbed soul who is able to shake up and send into contemplation the reader of any time. “DAILY NIGHT” is a genuine work, wherein we can identify and satisfy our own self and more with sentiments and thoughts we often experience, but are afraid, uneducated, or lack a poet’s capability and courage to publicly express them as finely and as freely as they do. Avdyl Pilafi lives and creates because of a dream, in a reality where it is commonly violated with extreme light-mindedness, totally unaware that, this way, it is us all ruining our own lives. Because our world is a kind of a paradox: it happens that what is built up by day is brought down by night! That’s why from Homeric times, poets sound the same alarm. Homer’s Helen of Troy was purely a metaphor, a superb provocation to test out the man’s level of civilization: “Nothing has changed,/Fears, only, have become smarter”, observes our poet from Albania:
Don’t come down here, Zeus!
You need not be here yourself;
Punished so cruelly once,
We don’t even think of raising our heads.
Don’t come all the way down here, Zeus,
Spare yourself the trouble:
A few petty ruffians are enough
To make even our bones tremble!
Don’t come, Zeus!
We came back with a lot more sense
From the funeral of Prometheus.
Don’t come down here, Zeus!
You need not be here yourself;
Punished so cruelly once,
We don’t even think of raising our heads.
Don’t come all the way down here, Zeus,
Spare yourself the trouble:
A few petty ruffians are enough
To make even our bones tremble!
Don’t come, Zeus!
We came back with a lot more sense
From the funeral of Prometheus.
