To Roberto Lopez Moreno
The horizon drowning a landscape of undulating wings
girded in snake rings. Eagle
leafless!
A poet's dream a dream of heroes crying
... and suddenly, silence. The lady voice (impressive, large eyes, tumultuous, wide and shiny brown braid as a headband) ceases to rumble in the sky. Away the microphone is useless falling, turning pieces. Then, in action peliculesca, agents pounced on the woman who is helpless in middle of the stage and whose only weapon is his fists full of poetry. The timely intervention of fans and friends stole it from the claws of hatred. Magdalena Mondragón, the first woman who ran a newspaper in Mexico, and narrated the incident occurred one morning in 1958, during a working meeting: "(...) the lawyer Rubén Gómez Esqueda ordered to withdraw the microphone and, if Reyes Aurora persisted, he would begin with jail. The threat, highly relevant, made itself Aurora, Concha Michel and other artists were put to distribute copies of the poem ("The Man from Mexico"), talking in a different tone to what extent improvement has come to freedom of expression .
Aurora Reyes Not for nothing was "uncomfortable niece" of Alfonso Reyes, when in other circumstances (and I am convinced that this was in the background) he had expressed pride in having it in the family. "Joy to the language," named his uncle the poet and painter who in passionate letter dated September 9, 1955, the birthday number fifty-three of Aurora, relive that girl "whose head stroked a moment when my father took me to meet you." Don Alfonso answer the onslaught of love with the following note: " Aurora Reyes, my blood, floral heart. "She and I are sufficient to corroborate the initial verses, the poet was unstoppable, the only, along with Lopez Velarde, who tore the heart without fanfare to dye the flag-shroud of national heroes . Its main singer, poet Chiapas Roberto López Moreno (who did a wonderful Aurora oil portrait in 1977), says she wrote one of the three great poems about the death of Mexican literature, "The Mask naked," along with "the face of a corpse," Manuel Acuña, and "Death without End" by José Gorostiza. The poem in question is a huge mural of the history of Mexico, Aurora's poetry is very visual, full-fledged in-stylized figurations which begins with the birth-Coatlicue dance in the desert: "(...) the uterus infinite repeat life / sleep on architects and harmony "(...)" You are now a flag without wind, / a passion that left the way: / germs and knives and desires ... / Food of all that lives and eats! "This colorful bloody poem contains the ancestral cult, genetic transmission of our indigenous ancestors, death sweetened incompatible with the salt of tears, death, joyful, loving, leaping, as sacrificial stone principle is eternal life: "I want China paper shroud, the corpse of the shattered sun, / goodbye to the petals of fire / And a stone idol in his arms."
Aurora Reyes Flores was born in 1908 in Hidalgo del Parral. General Bernardo Reyes granddaughter and daughter of a military engineer with the rank of captain, Leonel Reyes, the name of his father, and the spirited hair of the poet, would rise to that dubbed the Kitten. In 1913, after the death of General Reyes during the brawl at the National Palace to give rise to the so-called Ten Tragic, culminating with the murder of Francisco I. Madero, is unleashed persecution against close relatives of the late hero, which side Aurora's family to move to Mexico City where Captain Reyes was to remain cloistered and disguised. Alfonso's uncle, should be noted, chose exile in France rather than accept the post of private secretary who offered him the illegitimate president Victoriano Huerta. Doña Luisa Flores had to capitalize on his unique talent, bake bread to survive. The small Aurora, who entered primary school at age four, was in charge of selling in La Lagunilla, where the rot, even higher than their own, the would impact irretrievably, inflammation of the spirit of justice that the military would from adolescence in the Mexican Communist Party. Alternaria his high school studies at a time when very few women reached a respectable degree, with night classes at San Carlos Academy where he graduated in fine arts in 1924. It would be the first woman muralist, without having served earlier as an apprentice painter recognized: "At the time leftism and machismo were two values important that regulated the mood of the visual arts of the SEP-declared Aurora Reyes to Patricia Cardona. With Lazaro Cardenas founded the first nursery and abortorios gave free service to women as they spread free love for everyone. They only wanted to be like men, with all the vices and none of his qualities. They had the image of the Soviet woman, the peasant, with shovel, walk like soldiers (...) It was a bad caricature of the man. Finally, femininity is imposed.
divorced from 23 years with two children in tow, Aurora will fight fiercely for the right to vote for women and childcare opening for children of teachers (she taught painting classes in San Carlos); defend, among a bunch of aggrieved mothers, armed with torches and holsters, the building that housed the Center for Revolutionary School was intended to extend an avenue demolished. Hosted the poet Nicolas Guillen, hosted at his home in Coyoacan, at the height of the Cuban Revolution, during a time when such action was clearly subversive dyes: the presidency of Ruiz Cortinez. No wonder, then, that his name has figured in the list of characters denounced as enemies of Mexico Sinarquista Union, published by the newspaper Excelsior, 25 July 1954, along with those of Alfonso Caso, Jesus Silva Herzog, Dr. Alfonso Quiroz Cuarón, Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, former President Lázaro Caderno and John O 'Gorman. In 1968 he supported his students from San Carlos, with whom he collaborated on several blankets pint of consciousness aimed at Mexicans, action that would endanger his life again to the extent of shoreline to retreat some time in the asylum of La Castañeda.
accomplished painter of dramatic eloquent lines; of melancholy rather serious, violent, heartbreaking, also features that could define his poetry, Aurora Reyes was a voracious reader of foreign researchers of prehispanic Mexico such as Soustelle and Vaillant, Sejourne and Katz, as well as the English poets of the Generation of 27, which is a unique range of influences for his writing. No published his first slim volume of poetry, Men of Mexico (SEP), but until 1947, followed by Astro on the road (Talleres Gráficos of the SEP, 1950). With the new poem stays in the wilderness (Teaching Editorial, 1952), won first place in the Floral Games of the 50 th anniversary of the founding of Mexicali, BC The poem dedicated "To my infinite first homeland in the north of Mexico ... ", where the desert becomes the dimension of" horizontal and helpless Angel "is, I guess, the most beautiful in the tenor is written in Mexico. The desert, so exposed to the common place for the unknown monster that has, is described by the powerful Aurora tangibility of those who have experienced the consciousness of the skeleton that inhabits us, collectible only under the sun and inclement mouth full of sand . Blue fatigue. Fever spiteful. Rivers of fresh rose "Rocks noon Suspended / infinity as the mature fruit. / In your eyes still reign has grown / and the taste of the anguish and ashes / and thirst ... and thirsty ... and illusion." López Moreno us that the greatest strength of the poetry of Aurora lies, paradoxically, which is usually the weak point of the bad poets, ie it overlaps that enrich their geometry language.
Aurora Reyes died on April 26, 1986, a victim of cirrhosis, without receiving the recognition he deserved (still have it), ignored at the time, as we do see José Pérez Espino, Poetry anthologies of poetry movement and Buses Mexico, despite being ranked as the twentieth-century Mexican poet. His two sons, Hector and George, met his will to bury his ashes in the roots of a magnolia planted by herself at home in Coyoacan, Xochicaltitla Street. As a matter of Lopez Moreno, each anniversary Birth and death of the poet, and the 26 July (passionate as was the Cuban Revolution), a beautiful magnolia blossoms on the tree.
