Poems to break silence 
''L in my time in the Federal Transit Centre in Oklahoma was
long. Eighteen days isolated in a cell of the so-called''hole'', my days seemed like an eternity.
With little tiny pencils and paper, I began to write the diary of those days, as a group of very special and personal letters, born in that solitude, dove, parafrasando versi di Juan Ramón Jiménez, direi: “Sei dio del tuo petto, sei solo Universo, sei uno al tuo centro”.
Solamente una parte di quel diario e una delle nove lettere scritte arrivarono a destinazione. Per me fu un gran dolore quello che era potuto succedere, e feci ricorso alla poesia per rivivere i momenti di quell'isolamento e, in qualche modo, rimediare all'irreparabile perdita. Dal 3 al 16 di marzo, ormai di nuovo a Florence, sono nate queste poesie, in forma di diario, che suggerisco di leggere come un solo poema (come si dice si debbano leggere i famosi sonetti di Shakespeare, facendo salva la gran differenza tra quell'opera classica e questa modesta creazione). Per questo poemario decisi di scrivere decasyllabic free verse with rhyme, in the amount of lines typical of the sonnet. My goal is the pursuit of beauty or perfection of rhythmic verse, and even to create something new. My claim is to bring the reader up to the secret corners of my soul in those days of total isolation and unjust, even if
, Darío would say: "My protest is written" against the treatment and unusual loss. "
So speaks Antonio Guerrero Rodriguez, our Tony, one of the Five, prisoners Cubans unjustly imprisoned in the United States, one of its poemari more 'painfully conceived: we talk about "A lugar de retiro," which was published last year, thanks to an initiative of the publishing house of the city of Vigia in Matanzas Cuba
Moved by human greatness emanating these verses, Silvano, a friend of Cuba and the Cuban Five, had the happy idea of \u200b\u200bsetting up the initiative to publish on the Internet - in as many sites and e translated into as many languages \u200b\u200bas possible - the poems that Tony wrote, referring to a period eighteen days in solitary confinement y that later produced the book''A''lugar de retiro.
The proposal is to publish day for eighteen days, from 26 January until 12 February 2011, on blogs, facebook, web sites or send via mailing lists and more, the poem corresponding to that day, written by Tony a year first, that is, between 26 January and 12 February 2010. In Italian, English, French, Portuguese and even Russian and Bulgarian, the poems of Tony will sail cyberspace, breaking down walls of silence.
May this be one more way to demonstrate our solidarity with the Five, our love, security in the clear certainty of their actions, and also to cry out to the empire, from all angles del pianeta LIBERTA' PER I CINQUE.
Vi diciamo con le parole di Tony:
'' Stanco, non mi arrendo.
Ferito, non sanguino.
Tanta fatica, tanti dolori:
li calmo con l'amore dei miei sogni,
materia invincibile
che i guardiani non sanno riconoscere''
Vi invitiamo a partecipare a questa nuova azione poetry. ''Poems'' to break silence in solidarity 'with the Five, and in a particular way, a tribute to Tony Guerrero, a man in the most' terrible circumstances he never lost his courage and his smile.
