Summary/Abstract: The short phrase "simple and strict Macedonian song" from the famous "Vezilka" (“Embroider”) became a "kind of emblem” of the creative genius Koneski, his poetic manifesto” (according to Lidija Kapushevska-Drakulevska) Atanas Vangelov emphasizes that when he says that the criterion - a simple and strict poem has spread to the entire poetry of Blaze Koneski, achieving a degree of general and immediate provision. The first part alludes to the simplicity of the poetic utterance, but it is that unusual ordinaryness characteristic for Chekhov's poetics, or that simplicity which, as Yuri Lotman would say, is a consequence of mastered complexity, because it does not precede it, but appears on its background (according to Milan Gjurchinov). Complementary to the symbolic principles is the second part of the symbolism - the rigor of the poem which suggests the rational control and self-criticism of the poet in the act of creation. Thus, the two options that are experienced as two extremes / opposites intertwine and build the unique, unique verse of Koneski.
