Sinopse

ISLAND SWIMMING BACKWARDS There are ten elegies, more than ten poems. Before being a poet, Carpinejar is a researcher of the soul and human appeals, synthesized and often expanded in the realm of his personal experience, in his way of seeing and feeling the world. Above all, in feeling oneself. Everything required of the modern poem, including formal restraint, the absence of adornment and margins, was already present in his previous work, both in As Solas do Sol and in Um Terno de Pássaros ao Sul, collections that inscribed Carpinejar's name among the most expressive poets of his generation. An island swimming on its back. The metaphors, bread and wine of poetry, are the strength of these elegies, which can be read as a single poem or fragmented into a succession of haikus, sparkling, precise, necessary. Terceira Sede, I allow myself to reveal here, had a previous title, which included the fundamental words of poetic architecture: memory and thirst. Transcending the physical space of an existence, the elegies gathered here reach timelessness, which is more modest than eternity but has the same dimension: "I have crossed the century and have not yet traveled myself. / I have become the diary of a canceled journey." I quoted two lines from the first elegy and will quote the last line of the tenth: "I have grown old, I have a long childhood ahead of me." On the threshold of his early thirties, the poet acquires an autonomous and privileged vantage point from which to view himself and life. Present, past, and future do not form memories; his table is filled with absences. He places himself ahead of time, reaching an age he has not yet reached: "Since I could have died before, I decided to anticipate old age." Like Dante, halfway through, every poet seeks this imprecise platform from which to contemplate, gradually or simultaneously, the hell, purgatory, and paradise of the human condition. Third Thirst is the embryo and summary of the journey we all take in search of the stars, "and once we all swim backward to reach the stars." Leaving hell, an island swimming backward, we have the right to paradise as long as we accept purgatory: we lack the talent to forget. Personally, I believe Carpinejar is condemned to a unique poem, indestructible, seamless as the tunic of the truly damned. His dedication to poetry is total, urgent, and unavoidable. Although he confesses in the third elegy a nostalgia for silence, "I learned early to speak, late to be silent," Third Thirst is definitive as a poem in itself, but inconclusive as the never-quenched thirst itself.
