Poems Drowned in Time takes readers on a journey through different epochs, evoking a range of emotions including feelings, dreams, mysteries, and tears. The fluidity of sensibility in the writing aims to give value to words and bring human feelings to life. The book is a provocation and a challenge to the art of writing, presented in non-chronological order and grouped by content, time, and space. The book is a provocation and a challenge to the art of writing, presented in non-chronological order and grouped by content, time, and space. Each chapter is carefully sequenced to unburden ideas and create contrasts, inviting readers to explore and reflect.
The initial chapters collect experiences that touch the soul, celebrating the beauty and misery of our existence. Certain themes prompt introspection amidst lived contradictions, obliging us to recognize ourselves in every human circumstance.
The following chapters of the book lead us to recognize solidarity, fraternity, kindness, generosity, and amazement in the environment and human condi- tion. Others lead us to contemplation, intellectual curiosity, and the search for our destiny through other thoughts or stories, within the context of a society often subjugated by arrogance and imposition. Subsequently, the poems gather lost absences, compassion, romantic dreams, and anguish - experiences that are common to many of us. The collection concludes with reflections on technology, which has the potential to replace Homo sapiens, but can also redeem us with a different and regulated logic.
The purpose of this work is to contribute to the preservation of poetry in a world dominated by technology and hyper-consumption. As the French philosopher Lipovesky stated in his work THE ERA OF VACUUM, 'The ascetic ideal is no longer the cultural reference but consumption.'
