Alejandra Pizarnik

Yes, sure, you are one of those... men, or women or whatever, that can walk soundly and confidently. You speak loud when situation requires it, yes, you do, and feel pretty well while doing it. Somehow you have managed to dodge great and sinister existential human issues. I bet people around you sees it, envy it, no doubt.

But no matter how you got to that... point of spectacular and shinning, selfconfident stage of spiritual achievement: I promise... no, I swear, in the name of everything that was and will be, that you will not simply read unpunished the poems of Alejandra Pizarnik. Human tissue is... weak, vulnerable to her words, if you have the courage to go into them, understanding by the way.

This could sound like a threat; it is not, it is a fact, a convinced statement.

"Dare to come inside, if you are brave enough". Such sentence should precede her books. But it doesn´t.
