E se le parole, se i versi non fossero altro che la misura di ogni nostra insufficienza? Se non fossero altro che l’indicazione del peso specifico di ogni nostra incertezza e di ogni nostra coscienza d’incompiuto? Come in un mulinello che prende a vorticare nell’acqua, prima piano, a larghi giri, e poi sempre più velocemente, così le poesie che Renato Minore raccoglie in questa sua autoantologia raccontano ogni vita a partire da una vita: perché se ogni cosa è in prestito, lo è anche il dolore e il nome di ciascuno.

"Radicale è la poesia di Piero Salabè, i cui versi al calor bianco bruciano tutte le scorie. Il suo poema, frantumato in tante singole gemme, è unitario nell'essenziale musica del linguaggio e del sentire; è di una ferma classicità e insieme di un'inedita, temeraria liricità, che ingloba con assoluta coerenza frammenti di altri linguaggi (soprattutto spagnolo e inglese) come perle pescate in un pozzo. Un poli-linguismo musicale, non intellettualistico. Una lirica che si inserisce nella grande tradizione della poesia metaforica e della poesia in guerra con le parole".
