Voces Pr ximas Introduction Back Issues ... in our Virtual Library The Cities Inside Us by Alberto Rios We live in secret cities And we travel unmapped roads. We speak words between us that we recognize But which cannot be looked up. They are our words. They come from very far inside our mouths. You and I, we are the secret citizens of the city Inside us, and inside us There go all the cars we have driven And seen, and all the people We know and have known, there are all the places that are But which used to be as well. This is where they went. They did not disappear. We each take a piece Through the eye and through the ear. It's loud inside us, in there and when we speak In the outside world We have to hope that some of that sound Does not come out, that an arm Not reach out In place of the tongue. Las ciudades adentro de nosotros Vivimos en ciudades secretas y viajamos caminos sin mapa. Hablamos palabras que reconocemos pero que no podemos buscar. Son nuestras palabras. Vienen de lejos, de adentro de nuestras bocas. van todos los coches que hemos manejado y visto, todas las personas

Alberto Ríos Sestina Forms of Verse, Fall 2000 Heather Comfort, Jenny Dobbins, Tracy Singer S E S T I N A History The inventor of the sestina, Arnaut Daniel , belonged to a group of twelfth-century poetsthe troubadourswho needed, for their fame and fortune, to shock, delight, and entertain. . . The troubadours first appear in southern France in the twelfth century. Their name is most certainly extracted from the verb trobar meaning "to invent or compose verse." They were famous, celebrated, much in fashion, and eventually very influential on the European poetry of the next few centuries. . . They sangtheir poems were always accompanied by musicfor French nobles like the Duke of Aquitaine or the Count of Poitiers. They competed with one another to produce the wittiest, most elaborate, most difficult styles. This difficult, complex style was called the trobar clus . The easier, more open one was called the trobar leu . The sestina was part of the trobar clus . It was the form for a master troubadour. from The Making of a Poem , by Mark Strand and Eavan Boland What Some Critics Say Neil Querengesser acknowledges that the form "has been attributed to" Daniel, a poet and mathematician of the 12

13. Kyrielle A definition and description of the form with an example by John Payne. From a class taught by alberto rios. http://www.public.asu.edu/~aarios/formsofverse/reports2000/page3.html

Alberto Ríos Kyrielle Forms of Verse, Fall 2000 Irena Praitis, Matthew Heil K Y R I E L L E A French verse form in short, usually octosyllabic, rhyming couplets. The couplets are often paired in quatrains and are characterized by a refrain that is sometimes a single word and sometimes the full second line of the couplet or the full fourth line of the quatrain. ( Encyclopedia Britannica A "French Form" originally used by the Troubadours in the early Renaissance, it is related to the "Kyrie," a litany in Christian masses. Kyrie Eleison (Lord, have mercy) is a repeated refrain, and still finds voice today as evidenced by John Berryman's Dream Song "Kyrie Eleison," and Mr. Mister's song "Kyrie Eleison." You can find a full text of this song at www.greatdreams.com/kyrie.htm. For more information on how to write a Kyrielle, visit this website. It also offers a mini Kyrielle anthology. http://woods.bianca.com/shacklet/the_biki/kyrielle.html The Oxford English Dictionary offers rather humorous examples with its definition of the Kyrielle. It wouldn't be because the English have something against a "French Form" associated with Catholicism, would it? Kyrielle 1. A long rigamarole

16. Terza Rima and examples from a course taught by alberto rios....... http://www.public.asu.edu/~aarios/formsofverse/anecdotes/page4.html

D ante did not set out to be a great poet. Like many people living in the Italian city-states during the late Middle Ages, his passion was sport. The political party that he belonged to had split into two competing factions, the "Blacks" and the "Whites" (there are no racial overtones herethis simply refers to their symbolic colors). Dante was a prominent government official of the White party, and, in 1302, he was sent on an ambassadorial mission to Rome. While he was there, the Black party overthrew the White party and Dante was placed under a death penalty if he ever returned, so he lived the rest of his life in exile. Unable to practice his chosen vocation, he turned to writing and produced, among other works, The Divine Comedy." (taken from the website: http://courses.shepherd.edu/fall9900/maustin/engl208/dante/module15.htm In my opinion Terza rima is the most demanding rhyme and structure construct that is used in English poetry. Many fine poets have attempted to use it, none have really succeeded. Dante wrote the poem in Italian (a radical approach at the time, as almost everything was still being

18. Villanelle s and examples from a course taught by alberto rios....... http://www.public.asu.edu/~aarios/formsofverse/reports2000/page8.html

Alberto Ríos Villanelle Forms of Verse, Fall 2000 Mandy Michno, Matt Jolly V I L L A N E L L E This French syllabic form has no set number of syllables per line; common choices seem to be between eight and eleven. (English versions of the villanelle sometimes appear in accentual syllabics, featuring a perennial favorite, iambic pentameter.) The villanelle carries a pattern of only two rhymes, and is marked most distinctively by its alternating refrain, which appears initially in the first and third lines of the opening tercet. In all, it comprises five tercets and a concluding quatrain. Before the villanelle was made literary by the French in the late 1500s, it existed as a villanella, "an old Italian folk song with an accompanying dance."from Handbook of Poetic Forms, ed. by Ron Padgett. "The word villanelle, or villenesque, was used toward the end of the sixteenth century to describe literary imitations of rustic songs. Such villanelles were alike in exhibiting a refrain which testified to their ultimate popular origin. The villanelle was, in a sense, invented by Jean Passerat (1534-1602)." Passerat's poem about a turtledove is said to be the singular originator of the scheme described by Turco.
