Geoffrey Hill and Yves Bonnefoy passed into the paradox of words. The paradox of words
makes us feel the presence of words which are, in fact, only signs and as such, made of
absence. Hill and Bonnefoy died but are still with us. Poets are like words: they are present
in their absence. They're still with us just like the words they left us. We should not grieve a lot.
