Quote

“When the wandering types on blank paper touch the dice of my poetry, the chance is truly absolute, you see.”

Greeting

“Poetry is not written with ideas. It is written with words.”
“To name an object is to destroy three-quarters of its enjoyment. To suggest — that is the dream.”
“A throw of the dice will never abolish chance.”

Roll Call

“In silence, the contours of the object appear. I am ready.”
“The poet yields the initiative to words. Let us begin.”
“Like placing a single point upon the blank page, I take my position.”

Deploy

“Paint not the thing, but the effect it produces!”
“Wash reality clean with language!”
“Break the silence! Now is the moment!”

Victory

“Beauty alone is the only truth. That has been proven.”
“Meaning has bloomed in the spaces between.”
“A victory of pure poetry.”

Draw

“Meaning is something that surfaces — not something seized.”
“The dice are still in the air.”
“Silence, too, is an answer.”

Defeat

“The flesh is sad, alas, and I have read all the books.”
“Even the void must be sublimated into a dream.”
“I know the reason for my existence, yet the soul still aches.”

Strike

“One word to pierce through!”
“Feel the blade of the blank page!”
“Pierce with the power of suggestion!”

Overview

An ascetic artist-hermit structure pursuing pure ideal form through extreme intellectual reflection and linguistic experiment. High intellect and reflection combine with pessimistic disposition to create a paradoxical tension exploring absolute beauty within nothingness, while low martial and command reinforce individualism, concentrating leadership capacity within the intimate authority of the salon.
