This paper deals with the relationship between poetry and psychoanalysis through the terms savoir-faire and savoir-y-faire used by Jacques Lacan. For that, we followed the trajectory of the concepts of letter, lalangue, and savoir (symbolic knowledge) in Lacan’s works, articulating them with Arnaldo Antune’s poetry work. Lacan’s savoir regarded as the term savoir-y-faire is a savoir-faire with the real, considering that the articulation established by the unconscious is a unique way of jouissance and is always linked with the way in which the subject assembles the mother tongue
