ABSTRACT
The demands for the body's centrality and potency, understood as a fundamental battlefield in the clashes against power, is also present as a decisive starting point for the many poetics developing now, many of them reflected directly in the texts that make up Vinagre. The relation observed between Vinagre and the popular marches happens under the sign of untimeliness: the irruption of voices and bodies in the street, the unexpected and effective exercise of politics—the "assault to the skies", in Marx's famous formulation—have the same strength of shock and rupture as some of the poems. Police violence, one of the more frequent and disturbing images in the poems that make up Vinagre is without doubt the anthology's fundamental issue, the originating scene of many of its poems, the aggregating center around which such different texts and authors gathered and conspired.
