EXAMPLE OF HIS POEMS

  • The Lives of Poets In poetry there’s no happy ending. Poets end up living their madness. And they’re quartered like cattle (it happened to Darío). Or they’re stoned or wind up flinging themselves to the sea or with cyanide salts in their mouths. Or dead from alcoholism, drug addiction, poverty. Or worse: canonical poets, bitter inhabitants of a tomb entitled Complete Works.
