Agonía del árbol y la sangre is a poetry book by Alejandro Carrión. First published by the University of Loja with surrealists drawings by Eduardo Kingman. This collection is explores many directions of expression and technique. It begins with the poem censured by Enrique Anderson Imbert and provoked, thanks to his authority, Hernan Rodriguez Castelo to expel Alejandro Carrión from Parnassus (3). There were controversies: some critics, who did not approve of his renegade thematic direction that rejected the conventional " pesia del cartel"- accused him of plagiarizing a poem by Emile Verhaeren: Alejandro Carrión responded by publishing both poems together in the journal “ Letras del Ecuador”. Two poems are noteworthy in this collection: “Canto a mi silencio” that so pleased Eduardo Barrios, the great Chilean writer, and the poem "Plegaria", without a doubt one of his best, excellently translated by Dudley Fitts to English. Important poems of this book include “Ciprés para Federico García Lorca” eventually included in a tribute to the poets and painters from “Ecuador a la España Leal” and the “Ciprés para Ignacio Lasso” that cries for the premature death of the finest poet of his generation. In the end “Canto a Eduardo Kingman” was written as prologue to the album of prints "Men of Ecuador" published by the great painter. “Laurel de sombra” is a tribute to the great and sad poet Héctor Manuel Carrión, older brother of its father. ...more on Wikipedia about "Agonía del árbol y la sangre" The article you are reading is from shortopedia

Darwinian Poetry is a web project created in 2003 by David Rea in order to determine whether "non-negotiated collaboration" can evolve interesting and intelligent poetry using a process akin to natural selection. Visitors to the site are presented with two poems, both arbitrary splicings of two 'parent' poems. The visitor is asked to select the more appealing, and poems that survive the process of voting go on to be spliced into other 'healthy' poems. Unpopular poems eventually 'die.' The intent is to create, in the long term, poems that are progressively more interesting and sensible. ...more on Wikipedia about "Darwinian poetry"
