Marilyn Monroe |
On 21 March, the first day of spring is also the day that saw the birth of a great woman Merini Alda (3/21/1931 -1.11. 2009). His genius, his words but also his true insanity (bipolar syndrome) have made her one of the most important poets of the century. Strange as it may seem to prefer to remember the words of a song by Don Backy instead of his:
I'm sitting there and no
with a hat on his forehead
that strange things that I Passaniti mind.
Poetry is made of words sometimes do not speak out alive but the soul cry: cry of joy or cries of pain, often the expression of a lonely heart, soul to soul or depressed recluse actually or metaphorically.
She herself said that the mental hospital, where she was hospitalized several times during his life, showed the vast power of life.

And own poetic voice that manages to unite and to bring different women, who lived in different centuries and come from different worlds. Over the last few years, there has been a trend ... ... oh yes, there are also trends in the literary world! An English poet 700, counted by many of the poets "minor" during the period and by others simply as the wife of the famous Robert Browning was rediscovered by critics. I came across in his story for more study and that I was impressed by the work of life. Elizabeth Browning Barrrett was an educated woman who had been able to study everything in that century was possible only to men but as a woman, was forced by his father to live in his room or rather not to live. Despite its segregation in the family castle begins a correspondence with Robert Browning due to the mutual admiration and knowledge that will lead to marriage of his father following the abduction .. She and her life in Italy with her husband must be one of the most important poems on our Risorgimento (never more present than in these days) "Casa Guidi Windows " .

Rediscovery by critics, likened by some to a younger Emily Dickinson, praised by Borges and Shakespeare regarded in his homeland as a female (this seems a bit 'too much ... ....) ; The Barret Browning began to write and publish to 8 years to 13. That's one of his most famous phrases: "When did the genius appeared respectable ?"
The theme of loneliness returns but you can be alone even in the midst of so many people, perhaps this is what happened to Marilyn Monroe ... .. we are talking about the blonde actress with her curves in a tight white dress and sang Happy Birthday Mr. President to JFK, the airhead Marilyn (born Norma Jean) according to a recent survey stationed in 4th place among the icons of style.
If we speak of its fragility it is thought his death (suicide) and, strange as it may seem like she was a poet. It was recently published a book of his poems that had been stored for years by the wife of Lee Strasberg's agent. It ends with the words of Marilyn my foray into the poetic world ... .. but no more " Diamonds are a girl best friends !
"Life"
I have in me both your directions
remain hanging downward as
more often
but strong as a spider's web to wind -
exist more in the cold frost sparkling -
but my pearly rays have the colors I
seen in a picture - ah life you have
cheated.
