poetics

To the reader, either we bore him or we kill him. A bad poem –to be read- would be able to cause you a headache. A good poem –to be finished- would be able to kill you and to all to be alive within a radius of seven kilometers. The poetry is not only end and middle of itself; the reader should be murdered, but with all the affection. For this end I require that each verse be worthwhile the effort to be read. In the world there are two classes of people: the ignorant and the ones that do not want to be it. With the poetry passes exactly the same thing: it it is necessary does not serve neither to be left the view in her.

In poetry each image is a defense of the idea. Without idea there is no poem. Without image there is not poetry. Whether through the idea or of the image – if not both -, the poet only should contribute what does not he exist, and to be he himself to when lies. As well as only if a grain of sand irritates the weaving of the oyster, the pearl is formed; only if the poet is irritated he should be written the poem. It others is the least of it".
