Haiti: Entre beaute et blessures

by Dieurat Clervoyant

Clairvoyant s’exprime, parfois avec une virulente violence que peut seul comprendre l’exilé qui vit dans une perpétuelle nostalgie de la terre natale. Son verbe à l’égard des dirigeants de son pays n’est pas toujours agréable, pour ne dire même qu’il est généralement discourtois et accusateur. Homme d’une morale austère, il se laisse pourtant aller dans Obséquiosité par exemple dans l’expression d’une colère qu’on pourrait caractériser d’une grande immoralité.

Clairvoyant who has lived in France for the past 24 years, expresses himself at times with a virulent violence that only an exile living in a perpetual nostalgia of his/her native land can understand. His words directed at the rulers of his native country is not always flattering, a euphemism not to say discourteous or accusatory. Poet with moral probity, he however slips into obsequiousness when expressing his anger that can easily be styled great immorality.
