con el aire
entran las particulas y moleculas
que al fusionarse, ya dentro, con mariposas y sonrojos
se convierten en un
respiro (gemido)
cuya intensidad equivale al efecto de tus palabras

texturas
hacemos un acuerdo
y formamos con piezas compartidas
un diálogo táctil
mientras hojeo tus ideas
les dejo impregnadas las mias
trazamos un espacio que se vuelve nuestro
que cargamos juntos
como un aura o una esencia
y cuando nos vamos a ser versiones breves y editadas de nosotros
queda un catálogo de recuerdos en relieve
al que de vez en cuando
para encontrarnos de nuevo
palpamos

abrassive geographies
my body was assigned to me by destiny
my body was born pierced with its origin
designed by fate to be excluded
my body has to be afraid more than other bodies
my body has to move according to
u-n-f-a-i-r
rules
my body has biometric flaws
my body is victim
my body is molested with refined political manipulations
my body migrates
it doesn't travel
my body is my passport
to unwanted worlds
my body has no right to be nostalgic
...to construct attachments
my body is alone
my body was born pierced with its origin
designed by fate to be excluded
my body has to be afraid more than other bodies
my body has to move according to
u-n-f-a-i-r
rules
my body has biometric flaws
my body is victim
my body is molested with refined political manipulations
my body migrates
it doesn't travel
my body is my passport
to unwanted worlds
my body has no right to be nostalgic
...to construct attachments
my body is alone

simple and in lower case
With its monolithic power
THE WORLD enters our door
THE WORLD
big and in upper case
conspires against optimism
once more
IT rolls
IT tumbles
loudly
THE WORLD pushes its way through
the small things everyday
and strips us both off our useless artillery
It makes us small
even in the rooms we had built around us
even in our world... simple and in lower case
and yet
in the midst of this disproportionate mayhem
i concede myself the right to expect and wish
to survive
to once more
and for once
be with you

grace
in days of empty boredom
of desire-less
wish-less
hope-less
waiting
of waiting
for unnamed promises
for inanimate afters without afters
for short term eternities
in days of mute waiting
grace
is what is missing

where are they?

latitudes del corazón
Se agrandó, a mi corazón ahora le cabe el mundo,
elástico,
se expande y cubre pedazos de tierra gigantes
Palpita, con la cadencia de una sonata,
plácido,
acomoda días y noches sin el típico espanto
No espera, contempla el paso del tiempo,
confiado,
renuncia al forcejeo que entumece a los sentidos
Drena, llena los espacios encogidos del cuerpo
y, ágil,
suaviza... relaja mis dolidos pies y mis atadas manos

happiness for happiness
on this dance
i let you take the lead
and my happiness for yours
we trade
i let mine attend backstage
and with no heartaches
i sincerely cheer
for once
i allow some joy enter from outside
as i no longer reserve the spotlight
in my dreams
i observe you all
shine with a brilliance i didn't see so clear
and i silently smile
as i realize
that my happiness is yours

numb
friends are dispersed
some in distant latitudes of a similar nature
others gone along paths millions of light years away
from my own
Love has tired my patience
of that, no need to talk
Fraternal bonds under a question mark
what do they mean?
childhood memories stand on their fictional value
that's all
I'm gone somewhere
where I found nothing but myself
stripped of all the blurry illusions I had built around me
I can only ask:
In this quiet disaster,
why is it so hard to feel?

Recess of reason
I need to start a process of loosening
of un-tightening the knots
that have held together this safety net so far
I have to slowly let go of this long gasp of air
that has kept me alive
Releasing the heartbeats I've kept frozen
Stretching the legs of imagination and hope
For so long kept on hold now
I have to expand the scope of the feelings that are let out in light
I need to allow for a little excess of the senses
and a recess of reason
for a broadening of the scales of longing and expectation
I need to allow an increase of space around me
unconditionally
for a while
Let unbridged gaps span besides me
and lie
of un-tightening the knots
that have held together this safety net so far
I have to slowly let go of this long gasp of air
that has kept me alive
Releasing the heartbeats I've kept frozen
Stretching the legs of imagination and hope

I have to expand the scope of the feelings that are let out in light
I need to allow for a little excess of the senses
and a recess of reason
for a broadening of the scales of longing and expectation
I need to allow an increase of space around me

99 años después
... La lucha era silenciosa. No decían palabra. Sólo se oían los gritos del muchacho y las pisadas violentas.
La mujer vio cómo Quico ahogaba a Chepe: tenía los dedos engarfiados en el pescuezo de su marido. Este comenzó por cerrar los ojos; abría la boca y le subía la sangre al rostro.
Ella no supo qué sucedió, pero cerca, junto a la puerta, estaba la piedra; una piedra como lava, rugosa, casi negra, pesada. Sintió que le nacía una fuerza brutal. La alzó. Sonó seco el golpe. Quico soltó el pescuezo del otro, luego dobló las rodillas, después abrió los brazos con amplitud y cayó de espaldas, sin quejarse, sin hacer un esfuerzo.
La tierra del piso absorbía aquella sangre tan roja, tan abundante. Chepe veía la luz brillar en ella.
La mujer tenía las manos crispadas sobre la cara, todo el pelo suelto y los ojos pugnando por saltar. Corrió. Sentía flojedad en las coyunturas. Quería ver si alguien venía. Pero sobre la gran carretera muerta, totalmente muerta, sólo estaba el sol que la mató. Allá, al final de la planicie, la colina de arenas que amontonaron los vientos. Y cactos, embutidos en el acero.

Rotundo era un no menos categórico; el tiempo y la vida lo hicieron testarudo y cerrado a las posibilidades. Durante años fue ambiguo y le gustaba andar mucho con signos de interrogación y puntos suspensivos. Hubo una época en la que siempre andaba escurrido entre líneas.
Fueron miles las paradojas en las que estuvo involucrado.
Hoy en día, reformado, no cabe duda, no hay de otra: No

broken
there are kinds of pain for which words are not a valid currency
for which silence is hard and present
there are kinds of suffering that are only left for the champions
for those that have mastered the art of being broken
for those who have lost
along with their hearts and breaths
what they loved
for which silence is hard and present
there are kinds of suffering that are only left for the champions
for those that have mastered the art of being broken
for those who have lost
along with their hearts and breaths
what they loved
