David Hovhannes strives for strong and free movement, toward forms of life that are in constant flux, where immobility or slowness of movement turns into petrification and ruin. For him, the essential thing is not contemplation—the striving to penetrate into the metaphysical planes of things and movement, which demands self-restraint from the poet, an external freezing of emotions, and an intellectual overcoming of surfaces—but rather communion with the movement of things, participation in the flow of life, or in other words, becoming an active participant. In this case, the word acquires situations where, instead of compressing into itself and expanding toward its inner layers, it frees itself from secondary meanings and achieves its single, precise significance without redundant embellishments, because for him, the primary objective is the truth, which must be revealed without obscurities or strain.
