Situation: this LISP will be used in energy poles projects, i already have each pole dranw in my computer, just dont know how to put them inside my project. obs:. i use Ctrl C Ctrl V hahaha =/

Instead of trying to push the river, you might consider swimming in it.  AutoCAD has many very convenient ways to insert blocks, e.g. insert command, tool palettes, design center, drag drop block file, copy paste, etc, etc, etc...  Rather than attempting to use custom code, you might consider using one of those options.

If I am understanding you correctly, I think that a dynamic block with visibility states would work. Since you already have the individual blocks you can combine them into one block, creating a visibility state for each. This will give you a drop-down arrow that you can click on to select the block you want to display.

Here is a link to a class I did at Autodesk University. At the 23:00 mark I get into the process. There is also a handout there to step you through the process.
