Taifas Literary Magazine No. 6, 2020, December

However, the American poet Scott Thomas

Outlar feels the echoes of the primordial

explosion reminiscent of childhood games, but

the sound reality obsessively shows him

where he is going, as a repression of the vital

energy in uncertainty.

Next, we will stop, with the permission of

the readers, on a text if not of a Baudelarian

invoice through its coloristics, at least of a

strange psyche that we find in the writing of

E.A. Poe. The secret of an autumn night, a story

about obsession and hidden fears that ends

with the mysterious death of a woman,

masterfully builds the psychological

framework in which the

inner conflict culminates

in falling into inertia.

Disasters in World War II

take the path of

nightmare and become

reality again through the

chain of mania, vice and

sequelae. The end of the

story confers, by

detachment and hiding in

anonymity of the hero

Stanislas, the cynical role

that the world plays in relation to death as an

immediate reality and taken to banality. The

author's power of suggestion lies in the very

stimulation of obsessions until they become a

concrete fact again, and the enigma

perpetuates the cynicism of not

understanding what is not to be remembered.

Although I would not place the text in the

editorial species, it is perfectly integrated in

the beginning of this issue.

Perhaps the largest and most complex part

of this issue is the poetry section, as it provides

an opportunity for readers to be abducted in a

macroscopic area of ideas and feelings that

converge in human spirituality. Sajid Hussain

declines his soul on the line of cosmic time in

an eternal Now, while Bozena Helena Mazur-

Nowak tends to lift the human being out of the

routine by retelling eternity as an Unusual

everyday. For Gabriela Mimi Boroianu, the

reason for all things lies in love; within her

poetry, love is an opportunity to rediscover

the self by evoking a diaphanous past, it is a

manifesto of the living presence (Love is my

path!), but also a reason to retreat into a self

assailed by anxiety. The Poetry Letter of the

poet Marija Najthefer Popov is a hymn

dedicated to the eternal couple, a tribute to the

anxieties that lovers live in a perpetual

uncertainty of life, a praise to those who love

supreme. In Jigme

Jamtsho's poetry resides

the atavistic urge to find

inner harmony by

invoking the Forest as the

mediator of this

assiduous enterprise,

which Sameer Goel

proposes by balancing

hatred with love.

The essay section

begins with a broad

introspection into

turmoil, an ambiguous journey in which

contrasts are defined by mutual reporting,

each with the need to point the finger at the

other. Lidia Stoia is not shy to resort to

suggestibility, she herself a skilled handler of

the word, approaching the wide range of

narrative specifics. Of course, the Auntie

Sophie anecdote, in which Anna Maria

Sprzeczka-Stepien improves the humor of the

situation through the rhetoric specific to the

dramaturgy, should not be avoided.

Well, the Confabulation column begins with

a set of not at all rhetorical but existential

questions, which Destiny M O Chijioke

snatches from himself to propagate to all

mankind. Remaining in the spectrum of
