En la oscuridad de noche Las estrellas cayeron del cielo Las plagas de los Tziztimime Rabiaron contra el mundo La tierra tembló Los vientos aullaron Los mares se levantaron para consumir todas las cosas Las personas gritaron con miedo Pensaron que toda esperanza estaba perdida Pero Huitzilpochitli los escuchó Y bajó del paraíso para ayudarlos Él inmovilizó la tierra Él calmó los vientos Él azotó los mares a la sumisión Entonces él convocó el sol Y empezó un día nuevo In the darkness of night The stars fell from the sky The plagues of the Tziztimime raged against the world The earth trembled The winds howled The seas rose to consume all things The people cried out in fear They thought that all hope was lost But Huitzilpochitli heard them And he descended from heaven to help them He stilled the Earth He calmed the winds He whipped the seas to submission Then he summoned the Sun And began a new day

El Alba
There's a vato in the milky way sporting a fedora and a stash... I saw him from a mountain .....high somewhere between New Mexico and Arizona .....smashed. I took a pic to pinch myself get proof of what I'd seen.   And sure enough when I zoomed in there he was, looking really mean. I never knew the Aztecs had gone to outer space....but I have proof... I can show you...you could never miss his face.

The Milky Way Vato
Flayed lord of the harvest Robed in mortal’s meat He wears men’s hands upon his hands Feet upon his feet Human faces are wrapped tight across his darkened skull In his hands he grips the fertile seeds In his likeness Dresses the mortal priest Before the reap of the planted The harvest must be blessed The fatal flint of arrow tips must pierce through limbs and breast It must coax the sanguine To spurt in river flows Their death brings balance Clouds and godly quenching heaven rain After the earth is slaked The seeds must be kissed Kissed by the cracking sounds of flesh Torn by tearing whips Just as the skin is split So shall the shell of seed The maize will flourish in tall stalks of vibrant fibrous greens At rite’s final end The mortal priest shall dance He shall feel the skin upon his skin The hands upon his hands He will be Xipe Totec He shall perform his will Until his vessel’s vessel is potted in the tight bowled clay
