                            Essay for a manifest (collective poetry action)

The surrealism today in the triturating chaos of politic, social and economcal illusions? Certainty yes and more than what never. And we take seriously luminosity of the inscribed words 43 years before in the tomb of Andre Breton: “I look for the gold of time”. This gold does not have age and is out of any economic circuit. Also are our searches. Inside of the sphere of the morality (in crisis of values), of the aesthetic one, the art and literature (they say that it is studied in the art academies and the universities), we do not take in consideration the concept of beauty, because this put us in a places before the interrogation - what it is beauty? We evidence other sensitivities, inherent to the reason that produces an art work. It does not shock us the vulgarity of the way we express ourselves by visual poetry or writing, we before want to shock with the genius of the freedom through the poetical act and poetry. The freedom, this machine of propulsion, allows us conviviality with the integral man, through the unification of telluric forces that ravage the logos. The logic today seems us strange. Therefore we do poetry from the dreams: a good use of the dreams that permit born a new way of thought for not surrender to appearances. We are interest to conquer new geographies and full lives in the interstices of the reality, to the edge of literature and the art. We propose an exterior metamorphosis with the simple marked attitude, out of inertia, trough the collective action in an adventure that, through surrealism, drive us to the internal revolution of all poets because … the individual freedom is a superior goods.
