Overview

The poem in prose should contain poetry, but poetry should not stray too far from prose, at the risk of suffocating itself and ceasing to be. In this way, the poetry of this book travels from the water of the rivers to the clouds of the sky, from where it rushes back into the air and storms down to become salt again. Amidst water and mud (The decomposition of a dream, in 50 fragments) is the first poetry book published by H ctor Garc a Moreno (1975). In this book the author balances all of his plastic and architectural experience to build an ancestral house made of words that combines textures, materials and the primary functions of a building as an analogy of the human body from inception to decadence, recreating the stages of its biological and emotional cycle. El poema en prosa debe contener a la poes a, pero la poes a no debe alejarse demasiado de la prosa, a riesgo de asfixiarse en s misma y dejar de ser. De esta manera, la poes a de este libro transita del agua de los r os a las nubes del cielo, desde donde se precipita de nuevo entre el aire y tormentas para volver a ser sal. Entre el agua y el lodo (La descomposici n de un sue o, en 50 fragmentos) es el primer libro de poemas publicado por H ctor Garc a Moreno (1975). En este libro el autor hace un balance entre experiencia pl stica y arquitect nica para construir una casa ancestral con palabras que entretejen texturas, materiales y funciones primarias de la edificaci n como una analog a del cuerpo humano desde su formaci n hasta su decadencia, recreando las etapas de su ciclo biol gico y emocional.
