Description: "The poem, the verses—a play of forms, inscriptions. Definitions, abrupt exits and entrances. Opposites: the outside, the inside. Interior/exterior: words, silences. To walk, to retrace, to affirm/deny. To be and not to be. But to be. Ultimately, one exists as long as being wanders, abstracts itself. Leaves, enters. Returns from its straying. It wanders, it ponders, it abuses words as they, in turn, abuse the one who writes or erases. Punctuation marks, pauses, dashes—the poems cross the line and are read in the text, on the text, within the text, but also beyond it. There is a reality that does not materialize on paper. There are impossible realities, just as there are disposable interiors, rarely visited, while the outside swallows up landscapes, things ricochet in a city that does not belong to us. Where does the outside reside? In objects, in oneself, in the poem? Or are we ourselves that outside—that exile that cuts off words, unleashes them, conceals them, or exposes them from the shadow of the viscera or the sunlit edge of the days?" —Alberto Hernández (translated from Spanish by Archivo Venezuela).
