Sumario:The gesture of producing and reading poetry can be repairing: it is not only a question of its use as an expressive means outside the rules of syntactic coherence, but it also supposes the power to manifest the horizon of what is spoken, of enveloping the historical and the affective in a unique and transformative aesthetic. The present work intends to study the dissident poetry of the cis-hetero-normativity as means of repairing and making visible the affections displaced from the social space. It pursues the objective of investigating the connection between the affective experience, the bodily experience and public life. To this end, an exhibition and analysis of queer poetry pieces is carried out (written by Perlongher, Silvestri, Lemebel, Susy Shock and Gómez Jattin), investigating the points in communion with those that Sara Ahmed has named “Queer Feelings”. From this key, the relationship between current social norms, the affects printed in poetry and its power to reconfigure the current social fabric is analyzed.
