Description
Summary:The text seeks to explore, through the reading of some essays from Paulo Leminski and manifestos from Roberto Piva, the ideia that contemporary poetry assumes a position of war trench.

In his instead, Piva, in poetry as in the series of manifestos sparsely published through his life, presents the reader with the practice of a poetic of transgression, which works as a form of resistance to the institutionalization of life.
