“There are worlds and people that couldn’t know that the poetry is pleasant and necessary. For a lot of people it remains a text to know by heart, for others it’s something too difficult.
I’d like to give rise in this people the need of beneficial words. The need to give voice to all is dispirited inside the people.

There are people that don’t go to the theatre o in a square to listen the verse of a poetry. So I’d like to do a militant and millmetric act, far away from the scene. I’d like to go in the houses and bring inside the poetry where usually enter the words of information, commercial and politics.
I’d like to go to bless, like the clergymen before the Easter, and clean all that move away ourselves from our central fire.

I’m convinced about the function of “antidote” of the poetry and also about its strength of medicine that chase away the diseases. The poetry is a value in opposition at the horror, the violence, the madness and the cruelty of humankind. It’s a value that fight the dark energize placed inside each of us and it harden and dry up ourselves.
It’s necessary start to work this mass of pain, and make it all together, in a ritually, artistically and simply way. We must stop one moment on the abyss that we have inside and give to ours pity the right words.
What can do this better than poetry? And what’s the batter place than the house with its residents in a peaceful west night?”
