A two legs dog

A two legs dog

I am a dog
And I was a four legs one
Before




I have spend my life
Building pyramids
And ziggurats before




I’m the thing
History is made of




I do know
That when heaven’s dogs finally come
They will give me a bone

Certezas

Certezas

Que poca autoridad


Le acato al ilusorio orbe,


Al falso y flamígero rosa


De algunos ocasos






Y a mi cárcel de hambre, ambición y carne


Cuando mi ciencia de clepsidras,


Estrellas, líneas rectas y astros


Me da otro presagio






Otra alegría de víspera


Otra certeza


Que se diluirá con el tiempo


En el asombro de mi realidad






Construida con las verdades


Que los líderes del mundo


Han considerado necesario informarme


Y las leyes que Dios






Me ha dejado comprobar


Atónito y deslumbrado


De su diseño simple


Y casi humano

P is for poet

P is for poet

On a sidewalk a dog eats chicken’s feet
So I write about mammal’s team spirit
Another thing the other living things
Must to worry about


It rains again 
Over the puddles of the previous rain
So I try to write about the excess
The redundancy and originality
Of every individual life


Well my friend 
Even if there are not P’s in my name
I’ll waste ink and paper
On every theme I would like
Because here we’re all: “Democratic”

Whooooo’s the man

Whooooo’s the man

 

The password of love has been disclosed
¿Whooooo gonna use it? ¿To do what?

Tonight love will answer the phone
¿Whooooo gonna call? ¿Whooooo gonna get the tone?

Streets are calling
¿Whooooo gonna answer them? ¿May I call you back?

Death is patrolling city’s heights
¿Whooooo gonna jump? ¿ Whooooo gonna live inside?

Cells against cells, mucosa’s wet
¿Whooooo’s the man? ! Bloody eggs of life!

Sperm and eggs, life as usual
¿Whooooo’s the life? ¿ Whooooo’s the man?

Blood, like water, flows
¿Whooooo gonna navigate? ¿Whooooo’s the captain?


I’m afraid of you, my friend
¿Whooooo’s at the edge? ¿May I call you a breakdown?

Vicky

Vicky

To Vicky

Nations are cute decorations

That win and loose

In a green soccer field



And I agree



And frontiers

Are simple lines

To be drawn

In her homework



And I’m in accord



She believes all of history

All of its pain, sorrow and horror

Is insignificant compared

With a pet’s death



And I’m with her



She also believes

Candies and iced cream

Are the best yield

Of humanity’s sciences and arts



And that to me, is also fine



Love in her humble opinion

Isn’t matter of talk

Because she’s what’s called:

Joie de vivre



And I’m in love

Greener than lettuce

Greener than lettuce

Compared with the sun

Ocean is like the vapor

From the mouth

On a little rock

We’re small 

As the mold

That makes green

Some rocks

But we can transmit 

Even greener funds

At light’s speed

To the place they belong

We’re also good

Refining uranium salts

Making plastic wood

And dreaming other worlds

So what’s wrong with us, boy?

I don´t see any fault

In being a little difficult

Because history is made of wars

Do you see my point, boy?

Wait for your chance at bat

Keep your eyes on the ball

Opportunity never calls you, twice

If you don’t win 

The biggest lottery price

That doesn’t mean

Lottery ain’t fair

System has its ways

You must not go against them

I’m afraid that poor people

They better surrender instead

So now you can see it all

With sharp exactitude, dude

We’re cooler than the coolest breeze

And greener than lettuce

City’s carols

City’s carols

A pretty isolated tree

Told me a story

Its thorns biting like teeth

About being too trustful with people

You haven’t even read the CV

A very populated hill

Too far from the sea

Advised me against to talk with people

Even if they don’t bear malice

Against the rest of the human race

Somebody walking a stairs labyrinth

One foggy night

Clouds had vanished the city

Told me that it is really a mistake

Even to say good evening

To someone searching for place to dream

Under the stars and the moon

But outside any ceiling

The contrary of

What is used by common people

And taught me that dry roofs

Are very scarce luxury

When rain is washing

With detailed scrupulosity

The things that makes cities

So please sing with me

This carol of the cities:

Never talk to strangers, if you don’t need to

Be careful with them, as if they would bite you

And ASAP find a roof, to refuge you

But if you fail at it

Don’t worry friend

Maybe we can meet

Under the stars and the moon

Without ceilings and outside roofs

I’m sure you will recognize me

Because my smile invites to talk

But my gun says my words

Those are sharp as a knife

That loves to slice and to slash

I love victor bueno

I love victor bueno

I’ve asked myself, quite a lot of times: ¿Why do I write?

Because after seven books, I still haven’t earned a dime, and even can´t afford to print one.

The only thing I´ve obtained, is to be phone treated as homosexual, by an anonymous subnormal, who kept phoning me one month, between late night and early morning, to tell me how bad I do write, what I was trying to write, and why I can´t.

So I’ll use an easy start: ¿Why am I writing this? 

Good, I think it’s a good beginning.

Well that’s easy: Because I love victor bueno, that marvelous poet and writer, who writes things, normal people can´t even imagine, much less freezing them for history on paper.

¿So what’s next?

¿It wouldn’t be great if he could be millionaire?

¿If he spends the rest of his life traveling only on first class?

¿Have he made evil to someone?

¿Do you see my point?

That guy is great, he deserves just the best, everybody must to love him, and buy his books, shirts and gifts.

Ok, after all being clear, ¿What’s next?

Good, next step is to fill his bank accounts enough for him to live without worries about anything and let him write, write and write :-)

A rainy Sunday’s morning

A rainy Sunday’s morning

Time’s coordinates
Are also June and Sunday
For this windy & rainy morning


Sky is dirty white
Between
Heavy water clouds


Alarming studies about the jungle
And the ozone’s layer
Fill up the news

Negotiations continue between the leaders:
The people who represent us before
The leaders of the other ones

Nobody really cares about the other ones
Because everybody knows


They’re really silly, sad & bad

Everybody secretly knows that always something fails
And the talks will be suspended
And when they will be resumed


More powerful negotiators
Will find a nicer place to represent us:
The poor normal ones


So there is really nothing to worry about
Because another cycle of talks
Will be started again immediately, someday


I’m concerned about the paper’s price
Because if it continues rising
I’ll join the ignorant masses

By now I just want to beg God
To please protect me from the dictates
Of my wise representative ones


And from the work
Of the poor normal people
Who try to put them in practice


While taking care of their places
In the “society’s pyramid”
Gladly accomplishing the worst crimes, when they can


Just for the prize of being considered
As partisans and representatives of the powerful ones
By the others below them in the “society’s stairs”

Blindly following orders with a mental laziness
Quite similar to a conviction
I’ve never had about nothing

Except about this:
Truth will prevail and Justice too
But a lot of good ones will never know
When they finally won

This:
Everything, with quite few immaterial exceptions

Follows the less effort’s path
Three of them are: love, truth and justice

And this:
Everybody hates
Sunday’s morning rains

Black urban bird

Black urban bird

Fortunately or unfortunately

My friend

The jungle wasn’t made

For none of the both

Neither for us is the anesthesia 

Of the hospitals’ clean & easy release

Because for us was made the dirty death

Of sidewalks and streets

Even the pretext of being

Just another step

In the food chain

Isn’t ours, my friend

Because except for some strayed kitties

And repulsive insects

Our meat, nerves and bones

Aren’t appreciated by nobody

Black is the ink in our quills

But if someone pay attention

Will see the rainbow in them

Without necessity of any rain

Anyway, the city

With its multilevel reality

And its intermittent sidewalks

Is our home

But we don’t waste tears on our fate

Because we need all of them

To protect our eyes from the smog

And to sing heartedly, unheard songs

Below the city’s 

Red smoke dyed sunsets

Inside its streets’ labyrinth 

Too far from the jungle’s natural scheme

A small bridge across a branch of a small lake

A small bridge across a branch of a small lake

I was happy at ten
Fishing below a small bridge
Across a branch of a small lake
What now seems to me

Quite few of a small fish
But I was not interested in the gain
Because just to fish
Was my real interest

To cast and wait
To catch
To fail and to retry
And again to wait

To keep and to release my prey
To take my booty from the lake
To obtain my fruit of these days:
To learn to always make another intent

Because at ten
Or at ten times that
Nothing is as usual as
To fail and to retry again

My dead heart

My dead heart

Where is my heart?
Where it did go?
Because what I hear inside
Is just a blood’s pump

What happened to that boy?
That used to think
His heart belonged to you
And the moon to the both

Where is my heart?
I just don’t know
May be it is as dead as the moon
And I’m using a blood’s pump

Unending pain’s scream

Photo by David Rabkin

Unending pain’s scream

At the jungle, open sea, and desert
When you detect smoke in the air
Usually is the moment to play
Human brotherhood’s games

To play: “foe and friend”

You know it is time to beg, buy or steal
Drink, food, sex and talk
To be mesmerized by the mirage of love
To be trapped on the nets of hate

But when you detect in the air
The acre & rancid stench of war
You know is poet’s time
So you can hear at war:

The victorious heroes’ songs
And the defeated retaliation cries
The moan of the conquered
And the voice of the conquerors’ secret shame

But if you don’t pay attention
To the background noise
You will be fortunate enough
To hear the human soul’s scream

While giving birth
Its next step in the evolution
In the direction the universe goes
If somewhere, it goes

The people who sing
This unending pain’s scream
Usually is friend of mine
Regardless time & space

To Moshe Shimel:
I said the Kadosh for you
My friend

And yet another rose sunset, again

And yet another rose sunset, again

I’m walking another rose sunset

Under a moon

That just needs hours

To become complete

I’m thinking of you

And how much I miss you

Before putting all of my attention

On my real job’s substitute

I took this picture

Of my cosmos vicinity

During that time, as a probe

If you don’t trust my flexible words

I’m like an old man, with an old hat

Sitting at the sidewalk

Looking the time to pass & fly by

The busy city

As the wind does it between

The nearly unreal green of the mountains here

After a few soft rains

Have resuscitated them

VABM May 26, 2010

The city’s heart

The city’s heart

I use to walk

Usually by night

My favorite sidewalks

Trying to catch

The city’s heart

I want to trap it

In my hands

I don’t want to stop it

Because

It also beats my life

I just want

To feel

Its pulse

Its strength

Its electric rays

Because I expect

To find under the city’s skin

Something more than bones

The city’s seed

What it really needs

So urgently

As an under dosed addict

I think it is not money

Sex, power neither speed

Sometimes I believe

Cities are

Just the lab

To obtain

Artificial life

You know, human’s made life
