1 BAT - Let's Write a Poem
Writing a poem from the scratch is a difficult task; only poets can do it and only great poets can do it well. However, some poet's works can be excellent sources of inspiration; so there we go: this time we are going to use some visual poems by the Catalan poet Joan Brossa (1919-1998).
I want to thank the Fundació Joan Brossa for letting me use them.

Who can that person be?
ReplyDeleteIs it a boy?
Is it a girl?
Or is it a friend?
Or a relative?
A person from the police station?
A message from a stranger?
The love of my life?
The start of something special?

And do I dare
to meet
that person?

A CIRCULAR CUBE
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be?
Is it a dice?
Or is it a ball?
Can it be my future?
Can it decide who wins?
Does it make you more mature?
Or does it change people into kids?
What if I toss it?
What if I play?
Should I protect myself?
Or should I give up the game?
Do I dare
to roll
it?

Maybe it's a train.

at any station?
Where am I going?

to the other side?
Is it going to be
alright?
I don't know
The answers aren't clear
And do I really
want to know
them?

YOU AND I
ReplyDeleteHow can it be?
Can one person change it all?
Can you run my world?
Is it responsibility of the four leave club?
Or is it a matter of luck?
Should I fly away as a dandelion?
Or should I hide away as a chameleon?
Do I realize
I see the best version of myself in your eyes?
And do I need you
To be(come)
It?

THE OTHER FACE
ReplyDeleteWho can it be?
Is it a mirror?
Is it my imagination?
Is it a shadow inside me?
Is someone behind me?
Do I really want to know the truth?
Do I really feel my youth?
Can you see it?
Why can't I see it?
And do I want
to see the face under?

Who can it be ?
ReplyDeleteIs it going to kill me ?
Is it the end of my life ?
Or just other nightmare ?
In my hand I have a knife
Should I say anything to my wife ?
Who can be the mask
Who can I ask ?
And do I dare
to face
It ?

A,B,C,D...
ReplyDeleteWhat should be next?
What does it mean?
Maybe "E".
Just the alphabet should it be.
Let's throw the dice again:
Y,O,U...
Who is this
that is calling me?
Well, this must be for me.
M,E,A,N,S...
Now I'm so scared!
So I just need help!
Answer, please!
Before this;
I felt so free.
Are you looking for something?
Because I'm still frozen.

FAKE LIFE
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be?
What face is real?
Is it a lie?
Is it your life?
Is someone torn?
Has fear won?
Or is the heart hurt?
Or a strange thought?
Does your mind want to fly?
Are your wings cut?
Can't you bear the pain
to live being
yourself?
Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's visual poem L'ALTRE-THE OTHER ONE (1988)

THE GREAT MYSTERY
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be?
Are they really two people?
Is it a strange monster?
Or is it a simply one person with a mask?
In this case,
Is the person sad with a happy mask?
Is it a beatiful mask in on top of an unpleasant face?
And do I dare
To explain
this great mystery?
Sara Besa, 1st BAT A
Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's poem THE OTHER ONE (1988)
What can it be?
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be?
Is it a dice?
Is it a sphere?
Or both things?
Or maybe it's something ambiguous?
Can it have different
points of
view?
What can it be?
Is it random?
Is it something casual?
Or maybe it has an order?
Should I dare
to throw
it?

MY REAL SIDE ?
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be?
Is it a secret I try to hide?
Is it a secret at all?
Or are they my tears?
Or are they my fears?
Do you think this is easy?
Do you think this will be messy?
Is it the real me?
Is it another side of me?
Am I sure
Of this
Side?
Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's visual poem L'ALTRE -THE OTHER ONE (1988)
The uknown face
ReplyDeleteWho can it be?
Why does it use it?
Is it hiding of me?
Has it anything to tell me?
Why is it wearing it?
Does it want to scare me?
Maybe it is shy?
And doesn't want to show the eyes,
should I ask to show me the face?
or should I let it stay like that?
Whithout knowing who is behind that mask?
Marc Espinar, 1st BAT A
Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's visual poem YOU (1988)
THE MASK
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be?
What is it for?
Do people know their unknown personality?
Do people hide themselves behind it?
How can we know if something is real or not?
If all around us has a mask as we got?
Do we walk among people with free souls?
Do we always listen to real sounds?
Which things do we consider the real ones?
Which feelings do we feel like the true ones?
How can we know
if what we feel
is real?
Raquel Gallardo, 1st Bat A
Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's visual poem L'ALTRE -THE OTHER ONE (1988)
The alphabet train
ReplyDeleteWhat can you do, to stop the letter train?
The train of knowledge
Can you stop words?
Maybe you can't
It doesn't matter how hard you try
Can you stop knowledge?
You can't stop the truth
Will the train stop?
We'll never get to know
Will you take it?
Pol Martínez, 1st BAT B
Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's visual poem "Letter Train" (1989)
THE STRANGE KEY
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be for?
What can it open?
Would it take me to a great place?
Or to a lost space?
What if I found something
disgusting,
or maybe interesting?
This lack of knowledge is making me mad,
this feeling is so bad.
The only thing that I'm sure is that it isn't made
to make
me feel a deep hate.
Eugenia Porotova 1r Bat A
ESSENTIAL INSURANCE
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be?
Is it a code?
Or a password?
Or a padlock?
Choose the right one to open the door.
Is it the guardian of my soul?
Break it, and you will lose everything.
How can something so small keep such big things save?
Remember:
To open it, you have to keep it closed.
Do you dare
to risk
everything?
Samuel González, 1st BAT A
Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's visual poem "Key" (1971-1982)
UNKNOWN FEELINGS
ReplyDeleteWho can it be?
Someone unknown?
Or someone very close to me?
Why is his face not shown?
Why it looks like those feelings that we do not want to show?
Doesn't he want to exhibit his smile?
Or maybe his pain?
It will be a bad time for him,
and should we let the wound heal just like a starfish?
Or should we try to aid him?
And do I dare
to help
him?
Arianna Pannunzi, 1st Bat A
Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's visual poem "The other one" (1988)
WHAT IS THIS?
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be?
Is it a train?
Is it an alphabet?
Or are people queuing?
Or is it just a sequence of letters for a drawing?
Is the row going to any destination?
Is the row going to stop at any station?
Has it got a first letter?
Has it got a first wagon?
I can see the sart.
I can't see the end.
Should I think about it?
Should I deduct it?
And do I dare
To get on...

Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's visual poem LETTER TRAIN (1989)
THE MASK
ReplyDeleteWho can explain me
Why does my heart beat?
When did I imagin
Who could bit be?
I felt happy
like the birds
in the sky
like the moon
in it's tenderlight.
Why did you lie to me?
you were not the same
but feelings change
when the night comes
and the darkness wants
to steal our hearts.
And I want to resist
until the day returns
with it's bright sun
with it's sweet hopes.
What can It be?
ReplyDeleteIs it a dice?
Or is it a ball?
Or a puff?
Do you know what It is?
Provably you don't know
You need to touch It
Your eyes are cheating on you
Maybe It's a dice
Maybe It's a ball
But you don't know
What can It be?

THE MASK
ReplyDeleteWho can it be?
This thing scares me.
Where is it?
I can't know it.
Who can it be?
Maybe it's my shadow.
How can I escape?
It will always be inside me.
Who can it be?
It's my dark side
What is it for?
To protect me.
Emma Jiménez
THE MASK
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be?
Is it for me?
Is it a mask?
Or is it a task?
Or the representation of double personality?
A sculture of one person of the city?
Where is it?
So, should I
pick it
up?
Francesc Aguilera 1r BAT B
Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's visual poem THE MASK
BLANK MASKS
ReplyDeleteReal feelings covered
by simple masks.
Blank masks
hiding what we are,
what we love and hate
about ourselves.
Fear, love, rejection,
desire, deception,
loneliness, happiness;
they all are jailed
in our minds.
Feeling scares people
in this cold world.
Elena Blanco 1r BATX A
Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's visual poem L'ALTRE-THE OTHER ONE
The key?
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be?
Is that a key?
Or is that the alphabet?
Why should we use it?
To open our brain?
To be smarter?
Do I dare
to unlock
my brain?
Carla Rodríguez 1st BAT B
Poem inspired in Joan Brossa's visual poem "Key"
A HIDING PLACE
ReplyDeleteWhat can it be?
Is it the second face of a person?
Is it a protection of yourself?
Or a theater mask?
Or a hiding place for the soul?
What have I got behind?
Is it the real face?
Or another mask?
When did I wear it?
Do I still remember my real face?
And do I dare
to take it
off?
Bi Hui Lin 1r Batx A
THE LUCKY FATE
ReplyDeleteIs it a dice?
Is it a ball?
Is it both?
Or none?
Are those dots going to define my luck?
Or is it fate who determines my path?
Is your destiny linked to mine?
Or are we just random elements meant to collide?
Is this object a reality?
Or a perception of mine?
Is it both?
Or none?
And do you see the same
as I
do?

Soulmate
ReplyDeletewho can it be?
will it be my soul?
will it be yours?
what can I say to it?
where can I find myself?
should I listen to him?
where did he hide?
maybe it is on the top of my mind?
he made myself blind
do I dare
to change
it?

What personality is hidden there?

A parallel word?
Or maybe open every door?
What can happen if I open it?
Will I discover things?
Will I start a new life?
Or simply nothing?
Who is the owner of the key?
Will it be lost?
Will it be for me?
Do I dare to use it?
