Rising Sun - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Rising Sun is a ritual tour through different impossible stages, visions for a kind of poetry of resounding research, of extreme and strange images, in debt with the Spanish literary avant- gardes. Its author, trapped between the philosophical keys of European irrationalism and the reality of a life on a volcanic island in the middle of the ocean, gives pictorial answers to the apparitions of good love, to the oath of sacredness toward the word, to the void extra-literary reality. He flees from the poetry of experience1 altars of experimentation. Poetry and miracle. Poems in order to close his eyes in the midst of a rain-forest ablaze. Poems for nudity to be something other than an offering of flesh and neon lights. A rising sun floods us expelling deities without make up, mirages or roulettes of a creative mind that never sleeps. Never. Cult, accursed, impossible poetry. “Do not detach your lips” from its pages. Do not switch off the lights of the bathtubs in which the poet draws a picture of you before you were born, before he shaves beside the hypnotic child that you are, far away from spikes and inscriptions. Rising Sun es un recorrido ritual por distintos escenarios imposibles, visiones para una poesía de investigación sonora, de imágenes extremas y extrañas, deudoras de las vanguardias literarias españolas. Su autor, atrapado entre las claves filosóficas del irracionalismo europeo y la realidad de vivir en una isla volcánica en medio del océano, da respuestas pictóricas a las apariciones del buen amor, al juramento de sacralidad con la palabra, a la vacía realidad extraliteraria. Huye de la poesía de la experiencia y se abraza y abrasa ante los altares de la experimentación. Poesía y milagro. Poemas para cerrar los ojos en medio de la selva en llamas. Poemas para que la desnudez sea algo más que un ofrecimiento de carne y luces de neón. Un sol naciente nos inunda expulsando deidades sin maquillar, espejismos o ruletas de una mente creadora que nunca duerme. Nunca. Poesía de culto, maldita, imposible. “No apartes los labios” de sus páginas. No apagues las luces de las bañeras en las que el poeta te pinta antes de nacer, antes de afeitarse junto al niño hipnótico que eres lejos de las púas y de las inscripciones. ____ 1 A Spanish literary movement, “Poesía de la experiencia” (born in 1983 as a literary manifesto created and signed by poets Luis García Montero, Álvaro Salvador and Javier Egea, which enhanced the comprehension of reality through each author’s subjectivity, represented in his or her own biography: see http://www.cervantesvirtual.com/portal/pec/ptercernivel.jsp?conten=historia&pagina=historia7.jsp&tit3=Entre+la+disidencia+y+la+asimilaci%F3n%3A+la+po %E9tica+de+la+experiencia for its history and main literary features), not to be confused with what Robert Langbaum dealt with in his book The Poetry of Experience: The Dramatic Monologue in Modern Literary Tradition (Chatto & Windus, 1957; originally published in 1923): English poetry from Wordsworth to Yeats.
