Let's make this birthday one to remember.

49 years old (Born on February 10, 1976)

Happy Birthday, Daniele Pantano! Another poetic lap around the sun—clearly time has zero effect on Swiss brilliance. With works like *Blue Opium* and *Camera Obscura*, you've captured both life's mysteries and coffee-shop existential crises perfectly. Each translated word bears your signature wit; even mass graves become curiously uplifting in your hands!

Yet, whether editing magical stanzas for The Adirondack Review or orchestrating bold verses with Saw Palm's literary crew, one fact remains: you're poetry’s multilingual wizard-in-chief. Here’s to another year of caffeinated creativity—and fewer manuscripts haunting you before deadlines.

Cheers to laughter that's timelessly weird...never grow mundane, dear poet friend!
