I occasionally write in verse, but I do not really consider myself a poet: I just likes playing with words and rhymes and, under the cover of jokes and funny stories, possibly say something I care about .
With Qui si pugna, qui si pugna, illustrated by AllegroGuazz, I discovered how nice it is to make words meet images. This drawing comes from that booklet.
