Ramos Sucre is one of the most important poets of Venezuela and Hispanic Literature. His life, so limited and misunderstood, his readings, the era in which he had to live, made Ramos Sucre a poet ahead of his time. To call death feminine and as his beloved is such a rare characteristic that it speaks to us of the elevated thought of this poet. When we review his work and read about his innumerable suicide attempts, we understand that this fascination for death was in his veins. Unfortunately, although he is an internationally recognized and appreciated poet, in Venezuela he has not been given the courage he deserves. A good tribute to this anniversary week by José Antonio Ramos Sucre, @josemalavem.

Thank you for your comment, always so precise and enriching, @nancybriti. Incidentally this post is published on the day of the death of the poet Ramos Sucre, almost a magical coincidence. For this poet celebrating life was almost celebrating death, because he had a clear conscience of how one depends on the other. Curiously - as you must know, although other readers of this blog did not attempt suicide (by overdose of antidepressant medication) was on June 9, ie the day of his birth, but died four days later.
