Works

Its poetry with the instinctive immediacy reflects the daily newspaper in its freshness or its anguish and is characterized by a very varied form often based on popular structures but which does not scorn to call upon refined combinations or erudite figures; the different ones towards employees, often odd, confer on its texts a pace of always musical improvisation. The various parts of the collection correspond to the periods of its life, mixing enthusiasm overflowing with deep despair, the unit testifying to a pallet of a great density.
