The work of Vicente Federico Luy (1951-2012) evidences a formal internal tension that proposes, as poetry, to intervene in Argentine politics. Through the study of a series of pieces linked to the guiding phrase "Vicente habla al pueblo" ("Vicente speaks to the people"), this article analyzes the presence in these poems of the parenesis as a global rhetorical figure, the importance of a mirror structure that links image and text, and the use of concepts such as "people" and "war" as thematic instances; all relevant moments to understand the ways of a relationship mediated between two extremes: literature and society.
