Poets' spring
March 11-27, 2023 Theme: Borders
After L'Ardeur, Beauty, Courage, Desire and Ephemeral, I had in mind a free and fanciful title. Not necessarily magical, but without equivocation or ferocity. A word that appeals to bliss and imagination. Until the war tragedy struck Ukraine. That the history of the borders, conflicts and territories, return to lock our consciences. Torment our minds.
But borders are not just geopolitical or armed. Not just a murderous issue. Not a fortified front line. It is even the case that one never ceases to cross, from dawn to midnight, from childhood to the morrow, from the visible to the hidden, from death to life, from reality to poetry. It is this beyond borders that it is time to question, this world that brings together, astonishes, changes scenery, more than it separates. These limits that we must constantly push back. This danger that we must ward off.
