About me
Ulises Javier Fratesi Bay
A poet writing from the tension between the mortal and the eternal.
My work blends classical forms and free expression: hendecasyllabic quatrains, sonnets, haikus, free verse, associative free verse, and rhythmic free verse.
It brings together precise language, raw imagery, and profound reflection, where bodily experience, faith, and daily life come together.
Like Emily Dickinson and Alfonsina Storni, I write from what I experience: health, love, solitude, the passage of time, and the question of what endures. Here I gather my work —over 500 poems— with the intention that every piece may stand as a true mark.
