That woman

Was a quiet voice like the voice of a beggar

later the song had flown along my neck

to strongly rush like a deluge of water

to my head where it spun at length before I fell asleep

my eyes where under siege by that woman

who with her gaze can shatter the weapons of lecherous gods

and who reminded me of my grandmother

who died with liberty between her lips

defeated cholera and cancer

but was killed by bullets

since then I’ve written on the dead woman’s coffin

till one day her eyelids will open

I could hear the song climbing in that woman’s body

expanding her breasts and crossing her hands

and legs and ribs in marvelous ripples

in her eyes the irises opened like eclipses

and that song contrived to penetrate me as well
