Synopsis

The new book of poetry by word artist Ralph Dutli Seeing, hearing and feeling, the dream, art and love find entrance into the musical verses of the "ear-man" Ralph Dutli, who wrote in an essay: "Lute steering, thinking loud". According to this poet, poetry is magic, "of a tender and erroneous, enigmatic euphoria". From the imperishable fabric in salt poems ("salt is the change of eternity") to fragile, emblematic beasts, from fireflies in the Japanese Hotaru festival and squid - who are also poets! - Up to a "bee score", the constant and fleeting is traced in the "holy garbage dumps" of the world. Alba combines poems from a decade and a half in ten cycles. The Heidelberg poet Ralph Dutli brings verses from different times, languages and spaces to himself: his poetry is interwoven from voices of world poetry from Catull and Dante to Rimbaud and Robert Frost. He feeds on this poetic "mouth supply" in interspersed transmissions from the Occitan of the Troubadours, the French of Renaissance poets and others. From Ralph Dutli's poems speaks astonishing versatility and great lyrical power. We are singing unarmed down to the tongues. Lust! Bleck! the teeth! die Liebe ist ein Fleck wir haben den Fleck nachthell leckt
