An Autobiographical Meditation: The Dislodged Goldfish

In An Autobiographical Meditation: The Dislodged Goldfish, the journey traversed is as serpentine as the paths of life for those whose existence defies conformity. While some seamlessly blend into societal moulds, others are destined to a life reminiscent of a dragon’s breath: intense, fiery, and unyielding. The relentless trek through tumultuous trails and muddy roads can leave one spinning in disorientation akin to a dizzying dance with destiny. Just as a lunar eclipse graces the sky in rare moments, some lives unfold in realms where despair frolics freely, becoming an unwelcome companion. The clasp of misery, agony, and neurosis can be as tightening as a rusty wrench around one’s throat, relenting only in fleeting moments when the sun peeks through the clouds, only to retreat and reveal its countenance much later. While the poet’s disposition has been a subject of much discourse, An Autobiographical Meditation delves into the lesser explored abyss of insanity that lurks beneath the veneer of brilliance in some of the most gifted minds. Our planet, in its endless spin, has been a silent witness to the unfolding drama, as it spirals forward with each turn of fate. Through the lens of autobiographical reflection, The Dislodged Goldfish invites readers to a voyage through the undulating waves of life, where calm and storm are but two sides of the same coin.

Joseph Pirrello

Joseph is of a deeply reflective and mystical persona, who has ventured all over the world and has resided in Tuscany, Italy, where he spent two years studying classical piano, at the same time immersing himself in the love of art and poetry. As a newly arrived author on the publishing scene, nature poems deeply inspired by the nineteenth century romantics is what Pirrello gravitates towards writing. A lover and practitioner of daily meditation he finds solace in contemplation and never misses an opportunity to praise the creator of the Universe, for Pirrello is a devout Christian.
