rockn’roll

dream_poetry

I paid
and he asks
how I’ve been
he left a shapeless mass of laughter
in the air
I’ve had a hangover for days
he says: rockn’roll
yeah it hurts
and the hard Furies strangle
each idea with a whip of flame
and in that throb
one must find a quartz
of moonlight under a window
and breathe in an avalanche
and heed the noise
dripping from the tiny tick
of the heart

sharply
the eyes begin
by the sway
of a moon drawn by wings
to sleep

and here
skirting a crater
at the roof of a boundary
I am
washed by a beam of music
pocketing the fog
and perfuming the worn rags of clouds
like in fable
or inside a final
visit.


Contemporary Poetry

fields of visions

fields_of_wheat

Long breadth
an afternoon
in the ebb to unknown
was braver ago
than this flow of impetus.

The endlessly ontological
thrust of here. In accordance to
some laws rooted in seed and smoke,
a dab of cosmos along the tracks
early in the familiar day.

Awake, awake and a consequence.
For here is the strength to lift
the poison of life and its powerless
perfume.

This body still nested
as soft dull, still, born, erosion.

Then, at that point,
I perceived that all around
me were fields, fields
of wheat and leaves.

I perceive the sun
as particle in
the lazy pulse
of the sea.

Then deep smaller
motion creating
the assemblage of hours.

To them as tight
as horizon, in the
feminine shadow of
sorrow.

a pulmón de estrella

a pulmón de estrella

Siempre tuve el deseo de dividir el universo con una coma.
Lo que quise, y lo que es.
Ahora ni puedo acomodarlo en una oración.
Es un frase inconclusa como

una tarde que caía como falda sobre

¿Quién sabe? un dulce hogar o la chiquita apariencia.
No sé, tengo que ser honesto y desarmar el beso
de su cruel combate. Tengo que calmar
el ritmo de la luz que se contrae como
un olor a triste. Es una posibilidad,
esta participación mía que viene quitando
sus reflejos como pétalos de ropa. Son
medidas que he hecho con un cordón
que ya no llega hasta mi cordura. Miren,
el poeta rescata un ocaso y una lanza. Pero
los poros del mundo revientan a ratos
a pulmón de estrella. Doy gracias a
los nervios que toman largos tragos
de silencio. Y ahí están todas, la lluvia
que fue fértil y esfuerzo al pensamiento.
Ahí tiré una cadena a la cumbre
pero solo atrapé la amistad de una nube.
El resto es un momento, la música
que desaparece como aroma en al aire.
El resto es un ancho que el recuerdo no circula.
El resto ya no lo puedo masticar, lo dejo
empapado en su carne de flor.

 

Poesía Contemporánea

bellsound

bellsound

 

If the end
at a glance
a whole gamut streaked
about to be found
last feeble fleeting
piece of a second.

Someday come.
When all the pages
are stained with words,
but for a white slice of purity
gliding over the dark fallacies
of thoughts.

The mesh, and the ink
has followed the trail
of remembrance.
but this life
being an anthology of instants
has a silent museum
of shadows and vivid
lights.

When all meaning
at last
is a shapeless mass
if in the end
at a glance
something is found;
a piece of motionless
bellsound nestled
by chance
in the straw
of the verb.

 

Contemporary Poetry

si soy sombra

si_soy_sombra_poema

si soy sombra
cuyo cuerpo es préstamo
una mínima superficie,
gris y engañada

reflejo de fragmento
clavado en una inmensa
caída.

soy cosa débil
de costra
o transparente espesura

mi destino es esperar
dentro de una cintura
de luz
y fundirme
con la ausencia.

si soy sombra
el corazón
habita el rincón
de madera, piel o calle
sin adhesión
transita como racimo
desgranando pétalos
de aire

si soy sombra
sé nada más
de un baile hueco
de flacas mutaciones

si soy sombra
mi infancia es distancia
voy como
humo senil
que deja la juventud
del fuego

si soy sombra
desvanecer
será simplemente
sembrar una luz
blanca debajo de
mis difusas huellas

si soy sombra
quiero ser la boca
que traga la luz.
