Poetry and lyricism are always a temptation that no one can refuse, and they construct another reality that belongs to the individual on top of reality through the prism of imagination. In this reality, everything that language restates little by little from the law of cause and effect and of all kinds of necessity, and slowly rises from the ground, thus gaining a free body. But the earth remained barren, and poetry never ruled the involuntary place. In the gap between these two realities, the source of sadness constantly provides new nourishment for language.
