GUTNER, ILYA
Ilya Gutner was born in Russia and at the age of ten became an immigrant to the United States. He writes: “For a year and a half my family lived in Brooklyn and then made one more move across the water, this time to Staten Island, where I have lived ever since. I began making poetry without noticing so myself, simply as a part of growing up and without anyone's significant prompting; the first ten years of my efforts were scattered over aging hard drives and have since disappeared forever. Over the years I developed my own sense of meter, then my own approach to rhymes and to what is false if it does not rhyme, Nonetheless I do not consider myself a poet. My reason for this is precisely this that I have always worked to please myself rather than impress friends and girl friends; and my deepest thoughts have been bent to understanding my own life, not inspiring others to a life of deeper understanding. But I have not kept my poems in hiding, only avoided advertising them. The best place to look for my works is Facebook. I do not believe in forcing my writing upon anyone, nor in boring anyone with long complaints about the loss of sensitivity to fine art. If you are touched by what I have to say and feels a connection, I am glad and will be happy to hear from you; if you are disquieted by my words, you are certainly under no obligation to accept them. I have not been reading contemporary publications on the environment, but not out of a bibliophile's arrogance but an utter ignorance of bibliography. I do feel that themes of the environment must become for our generation something more piercing than the age-old pastoral idyll. The city has defeated the soil from which it grew but now the soil has become a freedom fighter whose cause we share whether we like to admit so or do not.”
