THEATRE OF OPERATIONS POETIQUES

Four emissions proposed by André Velter and Poetry on the floor 2, 9, 16 and 23 March to decline the theme of the 10th Spring poets: praise on the other.
The boundaries exist. The boundaries exist perhaps as never on land and in the head. Their power attachment has never been harmful. Also blind. Also bloody. The boundaries exist and are reborn. For a wall shot, how many new horizons covered with barbed wire? How many new horizons covered with barbed wire? How many nations raised to forcepts and changed immediately in as many mass graves? This is the new ultimate all against all, neighbour against neighbour, God against God. Poetry in chaos, can not by itself change the field of military operations in place of harmony and friendship. It may, in the moment of an encounter ephemeral resume listening, keep hatred from a distance, but without giving any change. The words and sounds that we do not share masking effect, no effect of race. They do try setting a resonance, betting that behind every echo still survive snatches of conscience.
