2 Poems:

Universally

and

Death and life

Universally

First and last commander

Born sinner... oblique and cubic

my bed, the pantheon of the poet that tends to roar

cameras refuse to discuss or illuminate

prose and verse...decapitate the eternal fires.

I am not afraid to sleep or stay awake

I am a poet, neither a liar nor tender... I finish last,

I am not afraid... of the nonsense of other fools

neither to the pages, nor to the lurking.

I am commander of my own hole... deluded and without fear of zero

I think... with the socket of my eyes, God's meadow

the scary night, the fear of the cold, the fear of the same fear

the perfect parable, the noise of a lion.

When the bishop is silent

Solving universal temples

deep breathing, eternal icaros...

close your eyes tightly, and atrocious human flights.

Without luxuries and without details... or deadly silences

We are part of a worthy universe... why fight?

the fall of entire Berlin, the fall of Madrid as well

My own poet's funeral was yesterday, just as dawn broke

the usual yesterday, that distant yesterday from a long time ago,

The vast sky lulls all the days of yesterday, who remembers them?

And who can hide the truth... could it be prudence? the text...

the noise... the olive blossoms in the middle of the morning, the vagina

or the silence of a kind of already dead saints...

who never knew how to love a woman

What happened to the madness? who banned it

the quiet one... the rumor,
