Sobre IBD

What I have presented in the essays is neither wrong-viewed nor right-viewed. It is but one’s viewing. It is open to criticism, alteration of intent, changing of purpose, and laughter at my try at them all. My views are not fixed in stone because I am not. They are attempts at outposts as I keep on the move. For myself, I am hopeful of an outpouring of other essays because essays are to help me stripping away deliberate exaggerations alongside of clever plotlines with an intent to alter the trivia of daily life into grander possibilities for the reader when not confined by what the limitations are to what is real.The essays presented, including the poetic forms dropped in here and there as I perceive as super-concentrated essays, is my way to search out some of the underlying meanings I believe to be worth pulling up for a scrutiny and examination.

  • Las palomas de la guerra y otros relatos
    Fabio Silva Vallejo
    Este libro podría considerársele una experimentación contemporánea de la literatura colindante, es decir, aquella en donde se pierden las fronteras entre los géneros. En su magia movediza, que va de la crónica a la minificción, del mito al ensayo, de la etnografía al cuadro costumbrista. En estos movimientos y escamoteos, el profesor Fabio Silva Vallejo nos propone de fondo una...

  • Potpourri
    Maurice Siegel
    What is a word? I mean to that brain of ours, a sound distinctly different from tree branches in motion or those of leaves hanging down uncertain what to do next. We get simple instructions from tree noises except for getting out of the way should one of them collapse. Not much information was gathered after a life of staring up at trees in awe, not even a smile. The reason is ...

  • THERE IS NO SAFE PLACE NOR EVER CAN BE I WONDER WHY
    Maurice Siegel
    Why does poetry continue to exist? It does not deliver information to solve problems or assist in helping with problems. Facts have no usefulness for rhyming couplets. We live our lives in comfort when we solve tangible problems effectively. Facts usually have some built into it reward system. That is, until we seek a closer communion with ourselves living in a world made to be...

  • Hopes and Dreams to Infinity
    Maurice Siegel
    In a very different direction, wanting to measure a cherished love between two people, I chose a setting, in ’Death Is Blind’, where Death is an equal protagonist. For the action of those people who are at their best in observing others as much inferior to them in quality of thoughtfulness, I chose the interfacing of a self satisfied, ’good’ person up against an airy, s...

  • The World Is Very Round
    Maurice Siegel
    Unlike words of a novel where the author may wish to inform the reader of unspoken but intended feelings for the reader, the author adds an aside with additional lines. Such asides in a play will cause the listener’s building emotional connection to get diminished. But it is the double purpose with the words spoken that produce both information and emotion, each with their sepa...
