The victory of nobody knows
I’m living in a town
Where people grow
In their gardens
Palm and mango trees
Side by side
Failsafe
Thinking about
The parrots comfort
I’m speaking a language
Where “to believe”
And “to create”
Sometimes is the same word
May God be with us!
I’m drinking rum
Above a home
Beside a mountain
Where THE ocean
Is three mountains before
But where
If you pay enough attention
To the signs and the smell on the air
You can have a presentiment of God
The town is called
“The victory”
¿Of whose?
Nobody knows
I’m thinking about
How people can grow
60 feet mangoes trees
Merely to enjoy bird’s morning calls
I’m swimming inside
A blood & time stream
That hopefully will last
Until the next step of life’s fractals
I’m thinking
That may be
That’s the victory
The town’s name
Is due for
Because this people
Have a freedom’s joy
I’ve never found before
