NOTE TO THE TEXT
“Wheater Me, a God as another”, is a text for the theatre, here proposed in reading for. The text is marked by a syncopated and rhythmic writing, E’ scandito da una scrittura sincopata e ritmica, in which align and dissolve snapshots of various nature and topical: the private condition, politics, spirituality, work, art, love, misery (not just the economic and material).
The narrator interacts with a bass without the music score, as if it were his heartbeat, the metronome of the emotions expressed in different registers by a metaphysics that appeals to two dimensions equally attributable to the sky and his motions: the weather (the atmosferic weather ) and the deity (the time and space of the soul).

For about 50 minutes,between irony, despair, lyricism, invective, fatalism, painting after painting, the text consists of an inner portrait done episodes of skewed reality from which emerge, stripped of every veil and hypocrisy, the loss of individual and collective of this uncertain present.

As a fellow parhogohpter and avid outdoorsman, I am extremely happy to see you promoting this craft. In this digital age, it sometimes feels that folks have forgotten that it is an art form of expression that needs to be taught and nutured. I look forward to more posts! Oh, and your my hero as well!
