Relevance of Poetic Sanctuaries
PMR October 2011
​
Poetic sanctuaries are the essential point of different WFP events. To entirely consecrate a poetic sanctuary the festival must fulfill with these crucial components. First, the fraternity among poets, where all attending writers are signs of brotherhood among many different poetic souls, everybody feeling mutual empathy. The second component of a poetic sanctuary are the poetic readings. For instance in Isla Mujeres (Cancún-Mexico), poets go to the IXCHEL SANCTUARY doing readings (since midnight to dawn) until the sunrising, or they make POETRY UNDERWATER, and they write, or make performances at the physical place. In Marrakech, they read in Djema El -Efna consecrating the sanctuary and many examples, as the type of the poetic sanctuary is saying to poets. Other element as WFP culmen, are the poetic weddings. Optimally this kind of weddings are celebrated between poets, and all poetic sanctuary must end with this rite, where poets are definitively thinking in love and poetry, over any other instances to celebrate sociocultural rites accepted by cultures, and prefering the sacred style of poetic weddings.
