Imaginary form

The paradox of being and non-being drives the self to find an ally in poetry, and gestures that consecrate their intimacy are made. Appropriation, origination, hybridity, and purity are the methodological ideals of the gestures; the assumptions that ground the text are: the self is an entity that wants to live, and will-to-live is the self's common root with poetry. The text poses in forms to be used to remember intimacy between subjectivity and poiesis: forms of portals through which to view the self's paradox, forms of opportunities to hear a voice recovering from understanding its last reflection, and, because the self does not want its last reflection to be its last, forms of speculations designed to generate reflections.
