Poems

Mientras camino la acera va golpeándome los pies,
el fulgor de las estrellas me va rompiendo los ojos.
Se me cae un pensamiento como se cae una mies
del carro que tambaleando raya los pardos rastrojos.

Oh pensamientos perdidos que nunca nadie recoge,
si la palabra se dice, la sensación queda adentro;
espiga sin madurar, Satanás le encuentre troje,
¡que yo con los ojos rotos no le busco ni le encuentro!

Que yo con los ojos rotos sigo una ruta sin fin...
¿Por qué de los pensamientos, por qué de la vida en vano?
Como se muere la música si se deshace el violín,
no moveré mi canción cuando no mueva mis manos.

Alto de mi corazón en la explanada desierta
donde estoy crucificado como el dolor en un verso...
Mi vida es un gran castillo sin ventanas y sin puertas
y para que tú no llegues por esta senda,
                                                              la tuerzo.

and there was a Fiona,
and me working the Edinburgh
***** nightclub
picking empty glasses
from the parkiet...
emptying ****** into
bottles of beer,
getting cornered by skinhead
homos eager for a blow...
Fiona...
    played her the mandolin,
outside her window like
a ******* twised Romeo...
rod steward's maggie may...
then there was Janina,
a love worthy of a canvas,
and a rose... roses bewilder women...
not ough pearl or oyster shells
on them... come next spring...
like any Dutch tulip addiction...
frivolous scoop...
n'ah... this ***** hit the bull's eye
of the bell tower...
ich troje's song
zawsze z tobą chciabym być...
a commoner party song...
became a critique of my skull...
as she deemed it,
the protruding occipital of Africans...
and the squashed, flat "missing"
protrusion was a sign of degeneracy...
even though we shared the same ancestor...
from a pop song...
toward a flat occipital...
wheat-gob bulging jawline
of African Amricans?
they stick corn cobs in there or what?
come on... even Somalia pirates
know the diffrence between not liking
a pleb song, and making comments
about the ******* cranium...
oh wait... and all of this...
in art class...
   so I sketched an answer for her...
her youth...
   eyes with no pupils and no iris,
pure sclera... looking into a mirror
and a babushka...
                if they **** for a reward
of 72 virgins...
              god give me strength...
anticipating 72 doberman
or alsatians, or rottweiler puppies...
       too much fictive love,
when the reality demands...
  once upon a time,
        when a young couple were
to be married,
the parents of both bride
and groom...
    invested in...
    the rewards of retirement,
and the anticipation of reinvigoration
by youth in the format of
grandchildren...
now?
oh you know the subsequent script...
*******.
