摘要:The theme of time has always been an object of concern for men and especially for those poets, who have concentrated on the temporal dimension of the human being as a person who walks inevitably towards his/her end. But the time of poems is not an objective time but the time of consciousness where the present, the past and the future live together. And that experience of time is in José Carlos Rosales’s poetry a torn experience. The poem becomes a screen where wounds, broken dreams, oblivion and disappointment are registered and symbolically represented in uninhabited spaces, in acts and things that speak about the power of the passage of time and its corrosive action. Yesterday, today and tomorrow, together in the poem, joined by the thread of desire and lived with the same intensity and the same uneasiness.
