In this three-part collection Le mot ment de dire vrai - L'au-delà source - Vert l'Orient, Eric Chazot unveils 143 poems expressing love, desire, illusion, voluptuousness, the passage of time, hope and the need to live fully in the present. Nourished by Eastern philosophy and Tantric wisdom, the author chisels out words imbued with sensuality and plays with sonorities to extend their meaning. Each poem reflects the poet's own experience or vision, but each reader can add his or her own, and let himself or herself be invaded by the words and images he or she conjures up. Chazot is a passer-by who deserves to be discovered.
Would this poem live if you didn't read it?
Yes, life is the same, without your gaze on it
It wouldn't exist.
Lingam
To the dreary hope of laughter
We mock, we laugh, sacred sex
Whom we adore and anoint
He who holds nothing back
launched us into existence
Damned us with hope
And the awareness of death
Believing they are God or our forefathers
Feeling alone, wanting two
Joining heaven from earth
Becoming oneself, being in hell
In singular expectation
From another time about to come
So that death finally comes to an end
Partying at our expense
Weaving like a snake
She surprised many friends
But I forget him thanks to the chablis

It's magnificent
Eric Chazot is a great poet
Thank you for that loose tongue
This sacred language
fresh and round at the same time
I've just finished KATMANDOU 69 and I see that ERIC CHAZOT passed away just a month ago!
I really enjoyed his book! I was doing that route to KATHMANDU the same year as him! What an adventure!
I am also discovering the writer, the poet, the endearing character of this man!
It transported me back a few years through this book! I'm also 76, and THE VOYAGE has accompanied my life, and I'm still continuing!!
Thank you to him for what he made me experience again!
Indeed, Eric has passed away, but his work continues to keep him alive. He wrote several books: "Tantra," "Un amour de chamane," and several poetry collections that I will surely present in the book section.
