[New-Poetry] Caramboles book release

[Anny Ballardini]

You're a musical man, Dickow, I just received from Facebook your
announcement in French, such a singing language,

even if Brazilian Portuguese seemed to me, way back in time, the most lovely
song_

> "The most cockeyed, twitching, wobbliest gait eventually becomes so
> ungainly, so weirdly lopsided that it dances. This book would rather linger
> in the confines, if it can, wherever the one becomes the other. I assault
> the French language, my second; I clutter it with l'on-lit and qu'on-con,
> unthinkable infractions, maim it with impossible malaprops. I torment and
> overthrow my other second language, English; I embrace every solecism,
> bludgeon with blunders every ear within eyeshot; I merrily reduce the
> English language to a frenzied shuffle. Or else I unhinge language,
> dislocate it, as though I were a gnome in a museum tilting picture-frames
> for a good laugh, just enough to discompose the patrons. Aficionados object;
> campaigns are launched against the crooked: the virtuous demand redress."
