Lucid dream

My big lucid dream
is overcoming us;
for at least a little while -
living in peace,
finding some peace of mind.
I only want nothingness
for I have nothing here
I only want lack of time
to avoid reflecting upon the past.
Not much shall I find
if nothing spins around,
if no signal beams back.
However, neither hearing colours
nor trading with your tongue
seems to be a sensible option now.

237

Contradictorio

Qué ganas de nosotres, ahora.
Ganas de mirarte, ahora.
De besarte, ahora.
Acariciarte, ahora.
Ahora.

Querer desayunarle para mí
no es un evento menor.
Se puede vivir treinta días
sin comerle, sin arrepentimiento.
El margen es muy estrecho,
nos escapamos.
Un obstáculo,
les demás no me apetecen.
No me apetecen, no tanto.
No me apetecen nada.
Algún día, alguien será.
Alguien la maldición quebrará.
O no.

235

Barco

Todos piden saltes del barco,
nadie sabe nada de nadar
ni siquiera sé si quiero
tal vez note que éste es el mar muerto
se hunde aquel barco,
aquél del que nunca hemos zarpado,
que no hay a dónde escapar
más que a los recuerdos, la memoria
de lo que no se ha concretado,
de lo que jamás se compartirá.

234

Río

En la oscuridad,
en el calor de tu mano,
ahí me encontré
de nuestro camino
ya en la debacle,
de vuelta a nuestros cauces.

232

Misterio

Esa eterna perdedora,
paciente potencial ganadora.
Nada se asemeja a no tenerte
y aunque nada obtuve
no dejo de vacilar
ante tu caja de pandora.

Los secretos que me escondiste,
aquéllos que nunca me confiaste;
los que porta tu máquina del misterio
e irrumpen en mí con un estruendo.
Todo se va a la mierda,
pues ya ni el recuerdo más diminuto
de tus silencios vale la pena.

231

Repetición

Siempre repetías
cual loro entrenado
aquello que de mi boca salía.
Los piropos, duplicados,
las muestras de afecto
siempre fueron ecos.

Jugátela, demostrámelo,
decime que estoy errando
o tal vez no, mediante actos,
pero decime algo.
El suelo casi erosionado,
ayudame a salvarnos.

229

Quietness

Nightime darkness,
silence quietness
providing me with a right
a kind of free pass,
thus without words,
without signs I can;
I allow myself to hide my tongue
to carefully lay below stars
and picture you and I
without us going bacj.
It is sensitive indeed
although not necessary enough
if thought twice.

State of mind

Freedom is a state of mind
people would oftentimes claim,
now that is entirely debatable,
so who could I trust?
After having waited for so long
I still consider what to work on.

If you allow yourself
to give it a thought,
it is not so far fetched.
I truly miss some shadows
but if they are no reality,
neither is that prison, that anchor.

226

Creativity

The creative process
that so much is it involved
when splitting the atom
of pressumptions, paradigms
thus ending with what's established
like a driving force here bursting,
breaking up, regrouping.

Miracles shall I never crave for
what comes will remain
only and insofar as it becomes
utterly unnecessary and touching,
completely arguable for everybody
for me to continue writing
food for thought at last arriving.

225

Routine

I do not know
what to say exactly
but something is for sure
I am full of uncertainty.
Anguish is everyday here,
a clear reminiscence of the past.
I just go to bed,
I just go to sleep,
I just go to work,
all this totally inanimate.
I meet my duties,
yet unable to find peace of mind.
Routine is killing me,
thoughts slaughtering me,
this time maybe silence
may become an opportunity
in order to grow up.

223

Astronomy

Astronomy in detail studying us
everyone a world under its sky.
The horizon carefully set,
it is a quiet, shy observer
before windy nights come.

The scenery so dark,
fucking myself up
messing with this, us.
Finally awaiting sunlight,
communication breakdown,
in silence holding on for instructions
here you and I are,
probably in the same boat
having so much fun.

222

Resignation

Dizziness, low pressure
nothing clear at all
small remembrances
of what could have been
all this unless proved wrong.

Slowly dying
muting is my body
hard scalp left behind
as if for a moment now
a new person could I become.

Impurity resigning
so little to be done,
unwilling to be polished.

220

Rolling

Long days,
not enough rest,
some precious sleep
perhaps should I get.

Moving forward
on the train I am
from where I belonged to
travelling backwards
on a journey to that city
where the present lies.

Rolling to and fro
on this vicious cycle,
vibes so high, so low.

Let us settle up,
let us forget recent past,
let us enjoy the ride,
let us enjoy this and now.

219

Equilibrium

Equilibrium
between shades of life
has never been so difficult
as it seems right now.
I ought to go on,
but before this, first
breathe in harmony,
breathe out peace of mind.

Rollercoasters
please make them stop;
no more second rides,
stumbling upon the same stone
I yearn to get off
no more may I allow.

218

Nothing

Nothing to be said,
nothing to be done,
nothing to carry out
when life is bottom up.

In the eye of this beholder
utterly atrocious
simply lousy
all this to describe
how awful my rhymes
actually look like
how disappointing they are
to my very eye.

217

Threshold

As tresspassing the threshold
dividing me into past and present
a device rings in my pocket;
the voice that whispers tell me,
it implores me to forget about mud,
and get into the forest at once.
My only wish is letting go,
so I do my bet and exhale all sorrow.

I make my great entrance
I make it to the deeo woods,
and, allowing myself to step back
I smell the weed, thus I forget.
The past times seem to have gone,
so I utter "home sweet home"
matter-of-factly, though,
too much drama over nonsense
is up to the present my loyal escort.

215

Unclear

Every minute, hour; day in, day out -
another grain salt settles to the salt flat.
Accumulated desire should not be left out.
All I crave is us holding hands
as we gaze at the spark in our eyes.

My insight, focus, not ambitious
barely do present days motivate me,
spinning on your orbit, my only mission
my fingerprintes upon your white sandy dunes -
a blurry future, both figures scarcely foreseen.

Neither do I expect to help you,
no do I expect you to help me.
I only want us to share our lives for a while,
I only want us to share the same space and time.
Let's get together for as long as we can.

214

Permitido

La vida onírica
que me otorga permitidos
el estridente silencio
se apodera de esta sala
hasta que de repente percibo
tensión, color, represión
flujo y reflujo de deseo
que toma de rehén al presente
esta bocanada del pasado,
como si de pronto hubiese
razones para ser y estar
todo y nada a tu lado.
