Go back into the inside So as not to wear out the flutter Let nothing filter through the breath Even though it's raining outside Keep looking down, head resting Allow the heart to pound on the asphalt So it entwines with the ground's dust In a sing-song stream of air And let it rain over the body Among the projectiles Teardrops of sun A scent of sea ink The colour of a butterfly Won't slip through the fairy's fingers When daylight returns Let muted vowels come to shelter in the mouth Let the dark sky fall upon eyelids Words will spurt up from the mine of a pencil Disturbed by nothing Not even a bat's terrible flight over a town under siege Let nothing be extinguished Sing the melody of silence Heady choruses of a world too full of Let the root of everything be reborn Let skin become leaf or branch again Skeleton, trunk or rock And blood, ocean or stream Beside it the poet's plume will scream. |
A poet, performer, opera singer and actress, trained in 2009 at the Action Theater in Berlin, Sabine Venaruzzo devotes a large part in spontaneous / real time creation. In 2012, La Demoiselle et cætera has become a spectacular form of her poetry in the sense that she appeals to theater, singing, movement, music and staging altogether. A proposition of multifaceted performances in which poetry is central. In 2016, she launched a vast poetic construction, « Sur les routes » (On the roads), aiming at turning the world into a poetic one. In this way she is setting her P.P.F. (Projet Poétique Fondamental, Fundamental poetic project) in direct contact with reality. It is a cross-border project with multiple engines, closely linked to its identity at the junction of various cultures: a family story marked by migration and European history, an atypical path abroad (studies, jobs, stays), and the practice of several languages. Her writings are published in magazines, anthologies and books both personal and collective. She is regularly invited to festivals and writer-in residences, and for 15 years is pioneering the poetry festival « Les journées Poët Poët, la poësie dans tous ses états d’art » in the Alpes Maritimes (France). |
