"FAREWELL TO MIGUEL ILDEFONSO"
"FAREWELL TO MIGUEL ILDEFONSO"
By: Niko Velita
Lima is a night of Tuesday March 16, 2010. One night routine of the streets where pedestrians walk in search of something. The street in every corner play the next day's menu or return ticket home. I I also internal in that sea of \u200b\u200bpeople. In my case, like 50 other endangered creatures, seek Jiron Ucayali where the Centro Cultural Inca Garcilaso de la Vega. Here we have gathered, some lovers of literature. It is the presentation of the book Dantes, Miguel Ildefonso, a book of poetry that has been favorably commented on various Internet media. 7 pm People start to arrive. I find William Gonzalez: friendly blogger (Cultural Drops lyrics), and the poet Eduardo Borjas. Where is everybody? Surely in a previous. Of course, for heat engines. Well, we lost it for being late to the prior. We're in that conversation when you see Michael with the group previa. And people is great joy, I see out there with Fernando Carrasco, Raul Heraud, Hector Hernandez, Giancarlo Huapaya, José Pancorvo, Paolo de Lima, Luis Fernando Chueca, Paolo Astorga, among others.
day begins. On the table are José Carlos Yrigoyen, Victoria Guerrero, Miguel Ildefonso, but lack the editor (it is on the way). The presenter, a representative of Centro Cultural Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, read biobibliography Miguel Ildefonso. Wide and of itself. It is the tenth book of poetry. In narrative is now the third. Osea total of 13 books! But then the author for clarification. The Dantes is the tenth book written, but the eighth published. The other two books that are missing are on track to editing. Then look presenters reading their speeches. It also speaks to the editor, who is almost Stalinist self-criticism for being late and also the book comes out tomorrow! (Editor perks "?). Until it is the turn of Michael. Thanks to the public and presenters, but before starting his own presentation, invited to the table Hector Hernandez Montesinos, a Chilean poet who has presented his book last week, here in Lima. I invite you to come forward to resolve our differences, "says Miguel, ironically, referring to the audience belonging to the Foreign Ministry of Peru. Poets do not we fight for a piece of land, still, because we own the planet and the universe. The Chilean shines with a poem written from the poetry of Miguel. He explains himself. Then come back to your site. People applauded by the symbolic act of brotherhood among the people of Peru and Chile, in this case represented by poets. Now, the author of Dantes begins his introduction and farewell. Presents his book and says goodbye to Lima, Peru. U.S. looks at home and everything. Speech paused, as if measuring his words. Lanza some jokes and anecdotes that makes you smile to the public. Read their poems. I move several heads in the sense of affirmation, approval, in each verse that leaves the poet's voice. Finish reading and all the toast of honor. The wine is small, so we head to Queirolo of Quilca. The spot, true to the poetry and the bohemian, is united around the author of Dantes. We join several tables to get everyone. People are thirsty. Talk here, talk there. Poetry. Of life. The street. The chaotic world of the city. Of drinks. Of love. Everything. That is the poetry of Miguel. Urban life made poetry. Urban life, the avenues, the streets. That place where "the old woman lived in a cardboard house / out of a cement house." And poetry: "unnatural speak as Rimbaud." Of poets "poor Kavafis have dug a pit in the floor / in your room it to hang from the ceiling / and not have a floor so close." This name a few gems of his penultimate book published. I mean Hymns (2008). And Dantes? Ah! The book to be entertained in the streets of Lima to arrive two days later at Zela Bar (here we made a new presentation and to book.) "beheld through the window of micro ... I watched as anyone, I was nobody until now, looked at them as I watch the move, their faces filled in prices, etc..." To: "I watched the eternal hunger together Rimac River. " course, with Dante, we see this Lima, but Lima Vico (Vico sang that night when inside the bus. / That mix of cumbia, and rock huayno lit / heart / of a girl lying in the window / of the other row of seats ) and Chacalón ( love is singing like Chacalón / singing in the hills of Peru ). But not just the beer. We also found Pucarina Flor ( just say that I am very sad / Ayrampito ) and hummingbird of the Andes ( I see the infinite which passes a song / Hummingbird ). "Only Peru? No! There's Mick "Jagger dancing at the bar - the saxophone is installed on the tip of the light" or "wisdom is to be in a bar somewhere where cheap drink at the border of Mexico and the United States." find this and much more, fellow reader, the book Dantes (almost 200 pages). Bon voyage, Miguel. Taken from
