IT has been difficult to think about who did I want to interview but finally I decided to choose someone near: not other but the singular Bárbara Méndez, who, apart from being this blog's manager, studying Audiovisual Communication at the University of Navarre,and wishing to become musical producer, has a special sensibility for poetry.
Define poetry in one sentence
Brain′s words of a moaning soul.
What genre of poetry do you think is the most expressive?Melancholy.
Related to what issues? What makes you feel it?
Loneliness maybe, death and deception, those are very pure feelings, there′s a strong message in between, even more than happiness.
Do you have a favorite poet? A favorite poem?Cesar Vallejo in the `Los Heraldos Negros.′
Do you think poetry is still a way of expresing feelings? That poets still exist?
Yes, I do believe in poetry as well as I believe in pure feelings. Modernism might have affected our society making us pragmatical and working focused on the left side, but humanity is there. We only have to focus on our inner side. Our early poets reside basically in musicians and lyrics. I think that books might have left aside and poetry found a big complement like music. They both work together aswell.
Thank you very much for sharing with us your view of poetry!
[ It's fantastic what you can learn from people with whom you even work and study!]
This was just the interview to one person interested in the topic, but I'm quite sure that many of you have something to say about it, so let's comment!!
