In this, his second book of poetry, Thomas Zampino imparts flashes of intimacy, intensity, and inevitableness. At its core synchronicity can be read as a love story. One not only existing between lovers, but one that also reveals how synchronicity–seemingly unconnected moments of “co-incidences”–lovingly shaped a life fully lived. A lifetime of poetry observed, told without pretense or presumption.
Mr. Zampino has been an attorney for nearly 40 years and only recently started writing poetry as a hobby. He’s had more than a score of his poems published in various journals, both print and on-line, including The University of Chicago’s Memoryhouse Magazine.
His first book of poetry, Precise Moment, was published in 2021. A video presentation of the entitled poem was produced by Brazilian actor and director Gui Agustini in 2021.
