The Courier
I
) Go! ) his father said to her ) and say hello
To the faroff land where I was born;
Tell her that your father loves her so,
Ill-starred though he's been, wandering forlorn.
It's of great comfort to my unkind fortune
If you go see Decollatura.

V. Butera was born in Conflenti.

VITTORIO BUTERA
Vittorio Butera was born in Conflenti on December 23, 1877. He began very early to compose verses in dialect (Larvas of a fifteen-year-old], but his vein exploded as he returned from La Spezia where he had been sent to study, after meeting Michele Pane (1988). His first poems were of a sentimental nature. Certainly not culturally deprived (he had a degree in engineering), one might say that he almost invented a language suited to the moral fable, in keeping with the lessons he learned from Aesop, Phaedrus, La Fontaine, Trilussa. An official of the Civil Engineering Corps of Catanzaro,
he died March 25, 1955.
