Left Foot Poet May 2017
for Karlotti

~
And a flower on the borders of winter.
an unseasoned sign that the singular erupting bud
will lend the lens to see, give the courage to accept
the greatest joy of man will ever be
anticipation

there will be seasons that the singular erupting bud,
be the bitterest truth nail gunned into your temple,
the perversity of a mockery, an uncrossable boundary
a flowering sign of skull & bones meant to teach acceptance
the greatest curse of man will be
the changing seasons

La mayor maldición del hombre,
Las estaciones cambiantes
karlotti Feb 2014
Todo el cielo en los ojos de un ratón
una piedra de tu a tu con esta rama
el mar al fondo devora insaciable eternidad
a mis pies, música de matar la tarde
alguien cultiva silencio a manos llenas
nada parece estar de paso incluso tú
llenando de adioses el camino de vuelta.
                                                         ­                            de Karlotti
All heaven in the eyes of this mouse
a stone on equal terms with this branch
the sea beyond eternity devours insatiable
at my feet, evening killing music
someone lavishly cultivated silence
nothing seems to pass even you
filling farewell the way back.

— The End —
