(En Orihuela, su pueblo y el mío, se
me ha muerto como el rayo Ramón Sijé,
con quien tanto quería.)

Yo quiero ser llorando el hortelano 
de la tierra que ocupas y estercolas,
compañero del alma, tan temprano.

Alimentando lluvias, caracolas
y órganos mi dolor sin instrumento
a las desalentadas amapolas

daré tu corazón por alimento.
Tanto dolor se agrupa en mi costado,
que por doler me duele hasta el aliento.

Un manotazo duro, un golpe helado,
un hachazo invisible y homicida,
un empujón brutal te ha derribado.

No hay extensión más grande que mi herida,
lloro mi desventura y sus conjuntos
y siento más tu muerte que mi vida.

Ando sobre rastrojos de difuntos, 
y sin calor de nadie y sin consuelo
voy de mi corazón a mis asuntos.

Temprano levantó la muerte el vuelo,
temprano madrugó la madrugada,
temprano estás rodando por el suelo.

No perdono a la muerte enamorada,
no perdono a la vida desatenta,
no perdono a la tierra ni a la nada.

En mis manos levanto una tormenta
de piedras, rayos y hachas estridentes
sedienta de catástrofes y hambrienta.

Quiero escarbar la tierra con los dientes,
quiero apartar la tierra parte a parte
a dentelladas secas y calientes.

Quiero minar la tierra hasta encontrarte
y besarte la noble calavera
y desamordazarte y regresarte.

Volverás a mi huerto y a mi higuera:
por los altos andamios de las flores
pajareará tu alma colmenera

de angelicales ceras y labores.
Volverás al arrullo de las rejas
de los enamorados labradores.

Alegrarás la sombra de mis cejas, 
y tu sangre se irán a cada lado
disputando tu novia y las abejas.

Tu corazón, ya terciopelo ajado,
llama a un campo de almendras espumosas
mi avariciosa voz de enamorado.

A las aladas almas de las rosas
del almendro de nata te requiero,
que tenemos que hablar de muchas cosas,
compañero del alma, compañero.

"Everyone who terrifies you is sixty five percent water. 
And everyone you love is made of stardust, 
and I know sometimes you can't even breathe deeply, 
and the night sky is no home, 
and you have cried yourself to sleep enough times that you are down to your last two percent, 
but nothing is infinite, 
not even loss. 
You are made out of the sea and the stars, 
and one day you are going to 
 find 
yourself 
again."

Who I am comes in waves



I might be really hurt. But then again, I might not be.





(Prestado)

"You have never been nothing.

You are a body made up of unique DNA and cells that have multiplied into organs and tissues and skin and bones and a system that tries its best to protect you from influences that harm. You are the product of a long line of evolution, the present artifact of your ancestors successfully procreating until their genes were passed onto you. You are the product of change and deliberate reason.

You are a contributor to collective thought and discourse. You have opinions and decisions that ripple and reverberate in their results. Your words and silence and heavy pauses are all important, no matter the size of their relevance.

You are hope and sadness and betrayal. You are coldness and emotion. You are forgiveness and absolution. You are the difference between acceptance and tolerance. You are brave even as you are a coward. You are giving up and going on. And every single day, you are moving forward whether you want it or not.

You are judgment and objectification, stereotypes and mistaken assumption. You are pollution, you are unstained, an oxymoron. You are rules and the capacity to break them. You are disorder and you are everything right. You are complicated and complex, you will always remain a puzzle to yourself.

You are sexuality and intellect, passion and logic coexisting in one being.

You are death itself because you have been holding its hand on the very day you were concieved. You will come to embrace the moment your breath expires and you will be nothing but memory as your facts become part of the world's continuous fiction.

But right now you are here and you are alive. You are possibility and change in one. You are soul and you are heart, no less and no more than anyone else around you. You were born as energy and power. You have a story and it is being written at this very second, when the end comes, what will your tale be about? What will they say about you who once existed and lived and decided?

You are creation and destruction. You have a right to your own definition.

Over all these, you are master. There is the challenge of circumstance and forces that try to outline you into a template of how life should be lived, of what and how you should be. Remember you can listen or ignore them.

This is your life and you should live it and believe as you please. Waste your hours, harness your power. Be offensive or try to reconcile. Stay ignorant or seek enlightment and education. Place blame or take responsability. See an unsolvable problem or see a challenge. Be pointless. Be purposeful. In the end, know that everything you do is on you.

Yesterday, you were important. Today you are vital. Tomorrow you will still count."

22


Eran dos matrimonios sin hijos y yo enseñaba a las señoras las fotos del álbum con recuerdos de mi marido, saltando siempre las planas donde estaban las tagalas que me regaló también porque era humorista y porque decía que así podía ver de qué lado se inclinaba la balanza de su volcánico corazón y que viera cómo las tenían tan caídas y puntiagudas como él me había contado.

"Don't ever call me Princess again" she said, head still resting on my shoulder.
"Did I do that?" I asked.
"Yes, you did."
"I don't remember."
"Driving back from Tsujido, that night. Don't say it again."

"I won't. I promise I won't. I swear on Boy George and Duran Duran. Never, never, never again."
"That's what Mama always calls me. Princess."
"I won't call you that again."
"Mama, she's always hurting me. She's just got no idea. And yet she loves me. I know she does."
"Yes, she does."

"So what am I supposed to do?"
"The only thing you can. Grow up."
"I don't want to."
"No other way," I said. "Everyone does, like it or not. People get older. That's how they deal with it. They deal with it till the day they die. It's always been this way. Always will be. It's not just you."
She looked up at me, her face streaked with tears. "Don't you believe in comforting people?"

"I was comforting you."
She brushed my arm from her shoulder and took a tissue from her bag. "There's something really abnormal about you, you know," she said.

But what was I supposed to have said?
Was I cold? Of course I could appreciate his feelings. One arm or two, poet or not, it's a tough world. We all have to live with our problems. But weren't we adults? Hadn't we come this far already? At the very least, you don't go asking impossible questions of someone you've just met. That wasn't courteous.
Cold.
