“Oulipo does not “explain” poetry, Ouilpo tries to find constraints for new kinds of poems. Oulipo is not into theory, it is a place of creation.”
Paul Fournel

“A veinte kilómetros de la meta nos preguntamos quién de nosotros debería ganar. No íbamos a exponernos en un esprint a muerte entre nosotros… La idea era, también, cruzar la línea con los seis brazos en alto. Pero aún necesitábamos un ganador, un segundo y un tercero. Se me ocurrió la idea: cada vez que pasáramos el relevo, recitaríamos la rima sílaba a sílaba: «¡Pito-pito-gorgorito-dónde-vas-tú-tan-bonito-a la era-pajarera-pim-pam-pum-fuera!7». Y fue Marco quien salió airoso del «fuera», y es el designado para ganar. Volvimos a reírnos con este regreso a la clase de párvulos y seguimos pedaleando, la conciencia tranquila.”
Paul Fournel, Pelotón hogar

“triángulo rojo del último kilómetro estaba a punto de ganar una etapa del Tour de Francia, realizar mi más bello sueño de infancia. Decido celebrarlo con dignidad. Primero levanto un índice hacia el cielo para evocar al padre que murió durante el año y que hubiera sido tan feliz, luego dibujo un corazoncito con los dedos para la esposa, finalmente me chupo el pulgar por el bebé y levanto las manos en alto para mostrar el esponsor en la tele. Y luego terminé segundo, porque un listillo vino por detrás y me pasó bajo el brazo justo antes de la meta.”
Paul Fournel, Pelotón hogar
