Surgery Sympathy Quotes

Poème

Originally a song. Did not like it very much Since I wrote it. Events like it less now.

Six

For everything that was
and all that could be

so come

and what will never be
a desire for joy and contentment

what we have seen so lovingly

mark my words in the hands of the devil

has braids in your hair

and the times I've tried to lose

What to choose?

What should I try?
That's
in this prose

How to improve?

All
tears and all the lies

runny nose

and yellow eyes

is so improbable
have not found a better way

too beautiful

other day we talk even

In my dream I saw the circle
the eternal flame that cries

slides across the perimeter

cutting my face

sings about what keeps my heart

your quiet and solitary peace.

And now we have seen the petals whitening

plunge into the dark

reveal pink spring and summer new

glistening flesh thorns ambiguously open

¿Será éste mi número de suerte?

¿Te hará acaso sonreír?

Crecí cansado

sí, aún necesito ver tu rostro.


-New Year's Eve 2006
