The earliest poetry forms a second group:

Twilight

The intention is to eliminate the difference between time and space
in favor of the idea of poetry. The poems want to represent the
effect of twilight on the landscape.

In this case the unity of time is necessary to a certain degree.
The unity of space is not required, therefore not observed. In
twelve lines the twilight is represented on a pond, tree, field,
somewhere... its effect on the appearance of a young man, a wind, a
sky, two cripples, a poet, a horse, a lady, a man, a young boy, a
woman, a clown, a baby-carriage, some dogs is represented visually.

thought to be real. The poetic art has the advantage over painting
of offering "ideal" images. That means--in respect to the Twilight:

crutches in the field and the woman on the city street who was
knocked down by a cart-horse in the half-darkness, and the poet who,
filled with desperate longing, is thinking in the evening (probably
