  ItalianAmericanWriters.com: Contemporary Italian American Writing - Alfredo de Palchi
Alfredo de Palchi's Anonymous Constellation is one long stream-of- consciousness presentation in the style of French symbolist poetry--with plenty of blank white spaces between the individual sections, or short poems, which wash through the poet's mind with stark imagery and cynical emotion.
De Palchi is a survivor of war and imprisonment by Fascist and Communists zealots, longing to find meaning in the violence and brutality that surrounds him and which nearly destroyed his youthful life.
De Palchi is both enthralled by sexuality and its pleasures and repulsed by the addictive grip in which it holds him.

De Palchi knows, as his stark poetry demonstrates, that there is no use to a brilliant physicist like Joseph Teller playing beautiful, ordered Bach on the piano, if he engineers the Neutron Bomb—which would leave buildings standing for confiscation after the humans who owned them have been vaporized to death.
De Palchi’s poetry is not so specific in references in its placement in time, but constitutes a universal, caged and ab­stracted howl of frustration and uncompromising rebellion against folly.
De Palchi gives that final, idealistic cry for all of us, swallowed by pragmaticism or apathy, against man’s inhumanity to man. That is what universalizes the poem.

 ItalianAmericanWriters.com: Contemporary Italian American Writing - Alfredo de Palchi
After the war, de Palchi was freed from the fascists only to fall victim to the partisans who in their communistic cadres inflicted grievous punishment upon the innocent young non-conformist-- only just freed from imprisonment by sadistic fascists.
Alfredo de Palchi may see us as creatures in effect "raped" by our own sexual drive.
De Palchi pictures erotic love like a rat gnawing at his throat, opening his arteries, causing him to spurt life.

 Amazon.com: The Scorpion's Dark Dance/LA Buia Danza Di Scorpione: Books: Alfredo De Palchi,Sona Raiziss   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Alfredo de Palchi's second book of poetry "The Scorpion's Dark Dance" is the first in his extant oeuvre, his first book was sent to a literary critic who lost it.
The competent translator and close friend of Palchi, Sonia Raiziss writes in the introduction, "De Palchi's poems are staccato bits of agony spitting out of his guts." The majority of the poems exceed no more than one or two stanzas and none of them are longer than a page, it doesn't matter.
It would have been easy for De Palchi to have given up to total skepticism, especially considering the horrors of the twentieth century and while it seems that "the bullies have the last word" he persists in believing something better for mankind is possible:

Again de Palchi's fierce nihilism, and uncompromising lack of sentimentality—as in his other recent books,
He is both attracted and repelled by the life force—the addiction to the pleasures which repulses him, but there is no prudery here, and no religiousity, as the repulsion is more profound than Puritanical.
Yet, there is a wry smile, a sardonic wit at work here, for de Palchi makes the erotic delectably inviting and pleasurable at the same time that he is repulsed by his addiction to it and thus the apt title
