Disclaimer

This blog ran for more than two years with no graphics--and it received about 50 page views. I was advised to add graphics; after seeing the huge public that followed blogs dedicated to homoerotic images, I decided to use that kind. The result was a dramatically increased number of monthly page views, and the number has remained fairly steady. Most of the images were found on the internet; although they are assumed to be in the public domain, they are identified as far as possible. They are exhibited under the Fair Use protections of United States copyright law: their function is simply to attract readers to the poems--I receive no economic benefit from them or from the blog. Nevertheless, they will be removed if they are copyrighted and the owner so desires. 1260 x 290

LASTRE QUE SE ECHÓ

 

Hace aguas la tarde,

gota a gota.

                                                                                                           Gasas            

                                                  

                                                  Siento un cuchillo de hielo,

                                                  un témpano.

 

Derrame de sangre que se riega,

que riela

                                                                                                           Alumbre

 

el sol araña

entre jarcias alámbricas

                                                                                                           Reverbero

                                                                                                           sobre los        

                                                                                                           estribos                                                                                                                         

Una boca vidriosa babosea                                                                  

suero y cartílago

 

                                                    Ha salido una bruma.

                                                    No veo nada.

 

desde un paralaje de eclipse y zozobra,

hacia un horizonte de aluminio

y ceniza

                                                                                                        Suero                                                                                

 

y cartílago

 

                                                    No veo,

                                                    no

 

Lastre que se echó

asíntota a la ventura

cae sordamente

y desaparece
