the poet and humanity

 In Doubt and Hope .
If there is a link between the artist and the rest of humanity
it can't be that nothing living can be created
without the obscure consciousness of this link there
bond of love and revolt .

The sequel can only come after the end of the film
a suite filtered by the cheerfulness of the light of the world
a suite to climb the stairs four by four
in friendship the thickening air
as time mingles with time
as this day passed that will not return
as the sharp horns of a gripping cold the edge of the forests .

They will come or they won't come
then they will leave
their lives focused on their daily occupations .

To stretch the neck
towards the proximity of a finitude all to oneself
rises the aroma of the sacrifices made to the gods
close to a human attitude that is worth - the laugh .

rushes in
through the door of disappointments
concentration camps murders and rapes
the ineffable ordeal in which must be settled
the question of the meaning of his life
heart pounding
in front of the red book of counterfeits
where to sneak away
where to spit his clots of dark words
on the marble body of the father gone from the first line
where the effort to engage
would qualify as primary attention
the divine breath to promote .

Gets up
above the tenderness of dawn
with the accents of singing blackbirds
the caduceus of intelligence and culture
rhythmic union with sweet scents of jasmine
outside the bituminous solitude
off the black ink verbatim
outside the pictorial palace of the granting judges
outside the warping of the pranks of stupidity
except this strange birth between dog and wolf
where to read true
is the final moment of decision
to gather in his soul
the prospect of a new impetus
so that the energy adheres to the spirit
springboard
where to bounce even higher
in simple life .
