Brian Pilling is an author and poet. My writing is inspired by the poetry of my grandfather — renowned immigrant poet Germoglino Saggio.
This website is both a vehicle to honor the work of my grandfather, but also a journey to find the wisdom he left behind.


The Poet’s Struggle is a chapbook chronicling the journey of a poet living in a broken world. Two common threads are present—a call and answer dialogue with my Sicilian born grandfather, the poet and roofer and myself a poet and architect, and a commentary (often satirical), often harsh (an echo).
