The Last Threshold
The Last Threshold
The promise to return
to the place w6here life began
Failure, to be banished
from an endless happiness
Shadows that wandered
the desert carrying their own past
A leaf-storm-fear
thrown to the felines of night
A beggar's desire going door
to door and sitting on the steps
of last threshold
to discuss his ragged loneliness
his bones, a premonition
of the mirror where death calls
The indelible imprint of pain
and undaunted scars
A history of humiliating executioners
and false fabulists
The unsatisfied thirst of gods
who bully us with their vengeance
and a tree who in its old age
only nested birds of prey
