The poetry of the Angolan writer Paula Tavares and of the Brazilian author Hilda Hilst presents a variety of disorders initiated from precast ideas which do not satisfy. The blood becomes an element that reconfigurates these conceptions, breaks with formal paradigms, and presents innovations related to the contents, surpassing their common use. Following this path, we bring some points of similarities and differences in a way of writing whose blood and metaphors reflect the desires of the female subject and revisit the traditions, articulating other ideas.
