Cortazar [poem]
"[Cortozar] had as much confidence in his cats' opinions as in the judgments of literary critics"
"What if there was a poem
that perfectly described the problem
of trying to write a poem
that perfectly described the problem
of trying to write that poem?"
"Like a truckload of rocks
dumped on your back, puking
its insufferable weight,
that's how time drops on you every morning"
Stephen Kessler, 1997
"What if there was a poem
that perfectly described the problem
of trying to write a poem
that perfectly described the problem
of trying to write that poem?"
Me, 2018
"Like a truckload of rocks
dumped on your back, puking
its insufferable weight,
that's how time drops on you every morning"
Julio Cortazar, 1976
