The Penultimate Wish

 



The Penultimate Wish


How many centigrade degrees

can we listen the rain to fall

without burning the limit of the path

that we still have to imagine


With how many blinks

we will get used to stare

at the orphan roads

that we travel together

towards oblivion

without bleeding the look

that numbs reality


How many kilometers

above the sun level

could we fly

without melting our wings

if only were eternal

our penultimate wish

WELCOME TO THE WAR

 



WELCOME TO THE WAR


The brilliance of a battalion of fireflies

camped in his gaze

while he counted the mirages

that writhed before dying

between shrapnel and despair


Now that the numbers

were only useful for the countdowns

or to subtract wishes

That his will traveled

on the surface of other rivers

with another's whim

He understood that it was no longer possible

to separate what is necessary

from what is correct

nor to challenge love for survival


Now that the tears

were dying in his heart

and that the terror had refuged

in the trenches of resignation

hoping to anesthetize reality

was that he understood

that at the end of the movie

his name would not appear in the credits

nor would anyone care to remember it

From Paradise

 




From Paradise


I do write this

from above

in the trees

where the green

and the light

protect

between its branches

the legendary treasure

of El Dorado


I do write this

under the river

where gravity and current

flow free

to Lake Parima

where the ghost of

Sir Walter Raleigh

bathes in gold between

the reeds and the herons


I do write this

above and between the clouds

where the wind is anonymous

Savoring the colors

that drip from the rainbow

to sweeten the marimbas

and the castanets

that become a river

when it rains in the mountains

I do write this to the sky

and to the earthly paradise

that come together

far away

on the horizon

Orinoco

 



Orinoco


Comes from afar

smelling of the jungle

Painted with feathers

of a thousand colors

Heaven is first

in combing their clouds

in the sweet mirror

of its crystalline waters


It’s from deep

that their dark worlds

of sand and silt

intertwine with the surface

In which the whirlpools spin

like water pulsars

next to the banished objects

that succumbed

to the winter rains


It is true that he runs fast

but it also stays

fixed on hypnosis

of its current

To allow

that the Waraos

open with their oars

the hidden locks

of its imposing flow
