EUPHORIC MANIFESTO

Among its bark I feel that I am diluted,
I hear the euphoric manifesto of the chincoles.
Blessed birds! They seem to know that
I wander between the sensibility of the existing
and the reality of my thoughts.

And this opportune fussy blizzard
dilutes my heartbeat,
I immerse myself in that world
less disjunctive and freer at the same time,
earthly existence that delves into my being.

THE AWAKENING OF THE WILD BEASTS

Intense whisper of the wind
Its beauty is not to be carried away,
pale complexion and mysterious eyes
protect your soul and
and keeps away the vultures that devour it.

The restless tides will awaken the beasts,
Not even against the Kraken
It won’t calm them down.

If the waters are calm
will purify the waves
and extinguish the horrors
that arise from the depths.

INEFFABLE NOSTALGIA

I wanted to describe nostalgia
and I found an ineffable version,
eyes diluting in the midst of facial lines,
hearts of compunction and unsteady souls.

Babbling and ungainly wiggling
vast deluges and stony labyrinths,
with leaden feet and slackened arms
wandering without direction.

And suddenly, a shy smile
gives off a radiant gaze
lifts up the mournful countenance
and frees it from its hesitant position.
