RE: ADSactly Poetry: Arthur Rimbaud, The Seer Poet of Modernity (Part I)
@josemalavem, Some poets holds the Futuristic essence and in my opinion people who hold the Futuristic essence stay ignored at that time but over the period of time their writings make sense and spreads more influence.

Agree with you, @chireerocks. There is usually in the great writers (and artists in general) an advance that makes them little compatible with their time; that which you call "futuristic". So what they write (in content and form) will only be recognized in the future. Rimbaud himself somehow had it in mind, and he says something in his Seer's Letter: "Poetry will no longer set the pace of action; it will be ahead of us", "The inventions of the unknown require new forms". I hope to be able to discuss these aspects in subsequent post on Rimbaud's work.
Thank you so much for sharing more insights.
