On Warm Afternoons

Image
On Warm Afternoons Your whispers call me, write the prophecies that die on my skin. I overflow in concave, flexible moments where everything I have invented about you fits. I never find the tender caravan of fans with which you cover your body, or the mutual days of ecstasies in the spaces of time. The reason hides in the shape of a bronze stone man. My imagination peeks to protect and avoid melting at inopportune moments of love. This is how blood travels  to the farthest corners of my tested sweetness, inhabiting the limits of your lusts full of mysteries. I escape your burning witchcraft with hands ready to rescue old tenderness. The swift banks of my memory suppress drunken details. I hear a dissertation embedded in the vases of death, the abys that rubs my shortcomings on your chest curls up, breaks the windows of your beach. Draws snakes with fangs that steal my hours of rest then stretches out on your seashore

Approaching Infinity

Image
Approaching Infinity I am not the fragile child who thought nothingness would one morning appear to become nothingness. I am not that baby boy in whose arms reigned motionless, lonely, silent arms. Flight is all my soul needs to feel your sorrow.

The Waves

Image
The Waves The body is wakeful space in translation, inexhaustible tension between outside and inside. There are no shores to contain the storms and inward darkness of its sweeping winds. The body does not know the extent of its inner anger. The waves expel and everything is erased. I refuse to see the empty corners of my frame. In its translations I'm still a child.

Tell Me

Image
Tell Me Tell me how your hours go by, your startled hates, your cheerful dynamites and the electric waves that carry you lost in the versatile foam of a surreal whiteness. Tell me how you live. Come to me, face to face; tell me your deceptions (mine are worse), your grudges (I also suffer them), and that stupid pride (I understand). Tell me how you survive death. You have no secrets: the gap of emptiness (or pleasure) is the same, the sudden madness of some living moment, the longing that stubbornly deepens emptiness. Tell me how you die, how you resign -Mr. Wise- how -Mr. Frivolous- you shine like pure fugitive, how you end up as nothing.

Nostalgic Hate

Image
Nostalgic Hate My ears listen to you lovingly until the very end of love. At the finish my hatreds harken, my mind figures it's a weapon made of paper and tattoo ink. I'd journey to East Asia and do us love-making in origami. Listen to the paper fold finely. Imagine my ears there, where the only thing that's heard is me disassembling, each time, every time, at the end of tenderness. Where hate is nostalgic finalization of affection.

Nina Simone Explica Delirios al Gobernador de Puerto Rico

Nina Simone Explica Delirios al Gobernador de Puerto Rico ¿Qué perspectiva única trae un estudiante minoritario a una clase de física? - Juez de Justicia John Roberts, Tribunal Supremo de los EE. UU., Fisher v. Texas, 9 de diciembre de 2015 Nosotros fuimos inocentes una vez, sin la protección de nuestras mentiras. Sin dragones. Celebramos incrementalmente el no real, el nunca lo fue. Lo que pasó fríamente sobre los mares olvidados y la roca del río— fusionada entre una pradera sin nombre y un delta desconocido— todavía se extiende sin interrupción, sin proclamación. Llamamos al perro muerto porque los niños pequeños no entienden la muerte. Cuando Cortés llegó a la costa de México ordenó que trajeran a un nativo a su barco, ya que él creía que era el perfecto conquistador. Le preguntó a su cautivo. Ma c'uhah que , el hombre respondió, y los españoles oyeron su primer yucateco en el lugar de su descubrimiento, donde Ma c'uhah que

Comrades of the Dream Life

Image
Comrades of the Dream I recognize you, those with the moon spread on their face, whose faces have no beginning but have a resounding and enveloping end, the ones with smiling sores on their bodies, who sweeten thorns and pin hope to hearts, who have painful tails and tender eyes, and move like a falling leaf or a shooting star. I regret your arrival before or after the pain, always at the wrong time but when needed. Volunteers of laughter, multipliers of atmospheres, inventors of the game who win without winning even when losing. Brothers of the flesh, companions of the fierce tooth that leaves a mark, connoisseurs of navels and buttocks and of their own music, I greet you!

La Memoria en la que M e he Convertido Las frases giran como lo que recordamos desde el momento en que  nacimos la primera vez. He construido estas memorias con palabras, pero  ahora solo son sombras. Sé que todo origen es una Roma que arde, toda belleza nada más que arrepentimiento. Lo que he trabajado corre como agua través de los tubos de drenaje del olvido. Inquieto, como las palabras, desposeído, basado en la repetición cautelosa de tu frágil inmensidad, reconciliado con el silencio brutal que llevo por dentro, una tierna autoridad. Los días no dan respuestas. Pero los días son descuidados en su apariencia. Para prosperar uno debe estar  infundido con supervivencia hasta cuando la duda es anunciada y arreglada impecablemente a medida que las voces desvanecen y el aliento toma el control en tenue progresión.

Your Moaning, my Moaning

Your Moaning, my Moaning Our salt-pepper locks gallop translucent at dawn Your lips and my lips saltpeter at daybreak Your eyes and my eyes Your hands and my hands bodies dripping slippery algae Oh desire, my desire our morning seashore
