Quotations

I rely in you, your force, your love of the universal life. Your meeting counted much for me. You are one of the strongest poets of this time. Jean Rousselot (in a letter of the 2/28/2004, after its reading of Limping of the world ).

… the way of writing achieved by Jacques Simonomis could only lead to install it, with insolence, in authentic witness of our time. Contrary to the makers. Gerard Cléry (the New Modern Review, N° 12).

You see, whereas the sun grimace in the gleam of the shutters, cold Poetry without you, your " blows of gueule" , without your good-naturedness . Pascal Dupuy (Poetry on the Seine N° 52).

Poem of Jacques Simonomis

THE HOUSE OF THE WORLD

In the house of the world
there are children
with or without parents
of the white of the blacks of the yellows
of the reds
in the house which moves.
Autour grinds the enemies
the hunger thirst the disease
unemployment and the bombs.
It is necessary to fight for the beauty of the world.
For you your neighbor mine
it his
for the children who will be born
tomorrow very far and who differently speak
in the house about the world
of which we are the grains
of responsible sand

white yellow blacks red
in the house which moves
around the common sun.

Jacques Simonomis

This poem, translated into a score of languages, continues its voyage throughout the world.
