The Poet and His Tribe

Choosing to talk about poetry or poets is undoubtedly to enter the territory of the uncanny; It means venturing out into harsh spiritual climates and getting lost, perhaps in an unfounded present. An allusion to an existence whose image is made even more precarious in the unsettling corridors of an infinitely lost existence... If life is a deep torment for those who know how to be content but are not self-sufficient, the poets who experience moments of uncertainty the most should speak... The Poet and His Tribe is a collection of criticisms, interviews, polemics and essays. . A smoke as different as the things suddenly seen in the past; An imposition of silence that treats his loneliness among the crowd as a cursed idol. Ultimately, it is the poet's similarity, his twin, that brings him closer to his group - and at the same time pushes him further away from him: There is no one as dark and enigmatic as such a person... The book devotes itself to solving this difficult riddle. The Poet and His Tribe keeps written records of the years with and without trouble, perhaps with the seductive drunkenness of holding on to oneself, in the climate of poetry that brings even pain to maturity. Maybe to confess that a burden that has become heavier for fifteen years is the work of sentences without predicates...
