UNBELIEVABLE I see something coming from nowhere
Tapping on me for luck
And giving me hope
I see something going from me to nowhere
Drumming to the universe and telling who I am
I can see my shadow going everywhere
Spreading goodness to all that exists...
I really can perceive through and through.
RUSTLE
The tear came to my eye
I preserved it on the edge of the world
I froze it in the crystal of the time
I dried it in the sound of the word
I embraced it in the lips of the girl
I planted it in the furrow of the earth
I wiped it with my mother’s sufferings
I sprinkled it with the wind of hurricane
The echo shall no more be repeated
THE LIVE PERSON WALKS WITH THE DEAD ONE You shall find me neither in the paradise nor in the hell
I have eaten the warm bread
I have drunk the crystal water
I have thought that I know to read in the book
that describes in the turned yellow pages
the humiliation of the tired dead
You shall not find me neither in the earth nor in the sky
I have wiped the death from the dictionary of life
Zigzags of the lightning that I have thrown
To the agitated sea
Are gossiped in the mind of angels
I have boasted that I know to understand exasperation
That wraps the myth of governing
The most flattered fruit of the earth’s hell
The sixty two years of wandering
Through the evaporation
Have begun to take the shape of recurrence.
THE SPLENDOR OF LIFE Lay me into a coffin made of annoyance
Put a wreath of despair
Be sure that you shall forward me to paradise
Clothe me with celebrity of desires
Cover me with the glory of praises
Be sure that I will descend to hell
But when you come
Again you would find me nowhere.
THE HIND AND THE SEA She frisks sheds tears flirts with
Drops drips sprinkles waves
The hind the doe the gold-horned
The sea enrage discharges hastens confesses
Very old too endurable enormously emotional
The flower petals wrap her wholly
Trickle flake breeze bud
Flares flies wings whiffs
The sea shrinks kneeling sinful
Sound-full colored soft face-full…
I am playing on the sand playing for fun!
THE BOTTOM – THE HEAD I the poet of the end of the globe
Started to go to head of this world
To se myself in the mirror of mankind
Why the poet of the end of the globe
The devil asked
They say that I am e disturber
They say that my speech is without boundaries
They say that I don’t has money
They say. . and what they say not…
Why the poet of the end of the globe
Asked the angel
Because my love is to all
My dignity is uncompromised
My sufferings are endless
I am a man
I have forgotten that the globe can be turned
So with a little push I saw myself at the head.
