Obsessions of an Inflexion Point
Rakhshani, R.
Synopsis "Obsessions of an Inflexion Point"
To write poetry is to invent a new language within language, to invent a process carrying words along from one end of the universe to the other. Writing poetry is to get away, to flee, to trace a line, lines, an entire cartography. Writing poetry is to trace lines of flight, a line of flight being a line that converges on; diverges from; an inflexion point in a perspectival representation, a line leading beyond the horizon out of our life, to cross a horizon into another life. No matter what life, so long as it is "another" life. It is an escape, but always an escape across the horizon to a different world, a world that is antithetical to the human realm, yet filled with nonhuman life. Writing poetry is a voyage, a journey, a trajectory toward an outside when healthy, a blocked path when sick. Yet the invention of a new language connects literature not only to the outside world, but also to the outside of language itself, to "visions and auditions" that are non-linguistic, but only language alone can make possible. When the writer is a "seer and hearer," an inventor of visions and auditions, poetry attains its goal of the passage of life into language.
