Mamuto medžioklė
SUMEDŽIOK, IR BŪSI SUMEDŽIOTAS
„Mamuto medžioklė" – ketvirtoji ir, galima teigti, kertinė Aivaro Veiknio poezijos knyga, kurioje daug dėmesio skiriama ne tik formai, eilutės skambesiui, ritmui, bet ir eilėraščio pasakojimui, jo istorijai.
Pasak autoriaus: „Medžioklė truko septynerius metus – žingsnis po žingsnio, eilėraštis po eilėraščio sekiau mamutų bandos pėdsakais, svajodamas sumedžioti vieną jų. Gal net patį stipriausią – vedlį, vadą.
Jeigu tektų atsakyti, ar medžioklė pavyko, tik gūžtelčiau pečiais. Nes šioje knygoje medžiotojas ir jo medžiojamas mamutas – vienas ir tas pats veikėjas, tiksliau, metafora, laiko kilpomis šuoliuojanti iš čia į ten, iš ten į čia... Sumedžiok, ir būsi sumedžiotas. Nužudyk, ir mirsi... Iš čia ir visas dramatizmas. Iš čia ir visa poezija."

Aivaras Veiknys (b. 1983 in Elektrėnai). Poet and journalist. Studied Real Estate Management in Vilnius Gediminas Technical University. Worked as a journalist in Lithuanian daily newspaper "Respublika", has been in Afghanistan and prepared reportage from there. Such short facts from his biography as Aivaras is not the youngest of five Lithuanian poets but with the shortest experience in writing.
Aivaras started to write his poetry in school. First his poems appeared in students book "Gyvenimo labirintais" (Labyrinths of life). His first book R aktai (Keys – the name of the book is a words’ game: "Raktai" means keys and aktai means acts. When asked why R aktai he explained that poems are Acts of writing: “Poem is a very intimate communication with world. Sometimes it’s pleasant, sometimes it hurts) was published in 2007. His first book was not the debut what poet can dream about. Aivaras himself was upset because of it. He tells that poems were not good in this book. "I felt like a lyrical subject from Hermann Hesse book "Unterm Rad" (Beneath the Wheel) – everything was so obscure around me". Nevertheless he didn’t stop to write and to offer his poems for different festivals and cultural press.
He participated in "Readings of young poets" and was awarded twice in Lithuanian Poetry Festival "Poetry Spring" in 2008 and 2010 as young emergent poet.
Cultural Press willingly started publishing his poetry from 2008, and literature critics were very positive about his poetry. 2008 year can be considered as a break point as Aivaras started to participate in different Festivals as participant of main readings. This is a way how he started to prepare for his second poetry book.
His second book "Paukštuko liudijimai" (Testimonies by little bird) was published in 2014. But he prepared for the book for much longer time. It was no surprising that it was awarded with prestigious "The Young Yotvingian prize" in festival "Druskininkai Poetic Fall| as a best young poet’s book of the year. The Commission appointed by board of public organization Druskininkai Poetic Fall read all new books and then decide about The Yotvingian and The Young Yotvingian prize prize for the best book of the year. The Yotvingian prize is one of the most important prizes for Lithuanian poets. It’s eveluation of their work. And the Young Yotvingian prize obligates a poet – this means that we do expect more in a future.
The book Testimonies by little bird was edited by one of the mostly known Lithuanian poet Aidas Marčėnas. He wrote about Aivaras: "He is a poet. He is clinging to life with his poems. Language is working its job in his poetry and this means that we are talking about a real poet". Not so many poets could hear words like that so this means much. This was a main reason for commission to give The Young Yotvingian prize for Aivaras.
The presentation of his new book was held only after this important awarding so many poetry readers knew Aivaras and presentation was crowded. Aivaras is perfect poetry reader for Lithuanian auditory. He speaks clearly and he knows how to talk to people listening

atšiauri ir griežta (pliusas čia, nes tikėjausi labai daug). 3 su kableliu ir kažkiek.
... bet savinuosi vieną.
"o štai ir mes -
svarbiausi sapno veikėjai:
gobtuvais užsimaskavę duonos trupintojai -
nekantrūs, bet drovūs,
niekaip nedrįstantys sušukti,
kad kiek, po perkūnais, galima
vartytis šioje tikrovėje -
po slegiančia debesų skalda,
kuria kitados mus užvertė girti
dangaus darbininkai - - "

Amerikiečių poetas Robertas Frostas yra sakęs: kiekvienas eilėraštis yra trumpas stabtelėjimas prieš pasaulio sumaištį. Nieko neužsiminta apie tai, kad toji sumaištis kada nors praeis ar bus bent iš dalies sutramdyta. Poezija stoja akis į akį su chaosu. Eilėraščio mechanizmas gaudo tikrovės dažnius, nužymi orientyrus nesvetingose, atšiauriose žemėse. „Nenusiminki, seki paskui mamutų bandą – / ji net per pūgą visad kelią namo suranda“ (p. 32), – ketvirtame eilėraščių rinkinyje „Mamuto medžioklė“ rašo poetas Aivaras Veiknys. Man pačiam ši knyga – ilgos ir pamažu besibaigiančios žiemos knyga, nuorodą į atlydį skelbia ir trečiasis rinkinio skyriaus pavadinimas („Žemė tuščia po žiemos“ (p. 47). Bet žiemos ne dėl to, kad apšarmoję, kartkartėmis horizonte išnyrantys, iš asmeninės poeto mitologijos atklydę mamutai tingiai traukia rinkinio puslapiais. Visas šios knygos poetinis pasaulis, jo užrašytas modelis regisi tarsi įstrigęs milžiniškame melsvai padūmavusio ledo inkliuze, sausumon išmestame ledkalnyje.

Dubuo mėsos, skaniai paskrudus duona,
ir tik vanduo ąsoty jau suplėko…
Negyvas tėvas baksteli į šoną:
- Tai ką veikei, sūnau, tiek metų?
- Nieko.
Buvau sumedžiota iškart.

Tradicinės lietuvių poezijos renesansas. Sugrįžimas prie amžinųjų temų ir grakščiųjų formų. Toks tikras, toks sklidinas pasaulis, patirčių, išgyvenimų.
Autorius pasirinko V. Šimkaus „Kranto kontūruose“ suformuluota poetinę, etinę formuluotę: „kūryba – kai nėra jokios / kūrybos. Viskas išgyventa“.
Drįsčiau tarti - visos autoriaus knygos stiprios, bet šita labiausiai išgryninta.

Nuo šiol tai pati artimiausia sielai poezija.
Savitas pasaulio matymas, jautrumas, persmelktas gyvenimo tiesų. Nepaprastai taikliai, apgalvotai vartojamas žodis.
Labai įdomu buvo skaityti, jausti ir įsijausti, leistis į medžioklę ir būti sumedžiotai. Labai ačiū autoriui.
"Švelniai miauksi, suleidęs letenas į pievelę mėlyną.
Nebebijo manęs šis katinas - išdidžiai prisėlina.
Panašus į minkštutį debesį kailiuku aksominiu.
Kaip medžiu manimi jis stebisi, kaip žmogus - jo visai nedominu."P. 58
"kas atrodo gražu ir gera,
bet iš tikro priklauso tamsai...
Šiaurė traukia kiaurai per širdį,
ją jau spėjus paženklint randu...
Speigui prašantis mano gūžton -
lyg šunyčiui prie slenksčio amsint,
aš, iššiepęs savąsias iltis,
jas už durų slapta galandu."P. 80
"ko pasauly negali būti, to daugiausia jame ir būna" P. 88

Geriausia mano skaityta Aivaro Veiknio poezijos knyga. Jaučiasi autoriaus atlikta didelė investicija į kūrinių formą bei skambesį. Šioje knygoje poetas yra gal kiek mažiau spontaniškas, bet išlaiko sau įprastą žiūros gylį.
