Traditional critic has prioritized the study of serious poetry and, to a lesser extent, of satire, due to its extra-literary implications. In this context, burlesque poetry, defined by its game with language materiality, constitutes a marginal tradition, despite its vitality and its convergences with modern poetry. This research paper, based on Alfonso Reyes' theory, analyzes three Colonial Neogrenadian poems representing different possibilities of burlesque. "Coplas del baile de las brujas" uses resources from popular culture, including jitanjáfora, to transmit a socio-political denunciation. "Felicitación", by Francisco Antonio Rodríguez, explores polysemy to create nonsense verses. Finally, "Para dar días o noches", by Francisco Javier Caro, creates neologisms to play with acoustic resonances. In the conclusion, we discuss the subversive or accommodative nature of the studied poems, as well as the need to rediscover the burlesque side of homo ludens in the literary productions.

Palabras clave : burlesque; jitanjáfora; nonsense; popular culture.
