Themselves are nothing much... like flies without their wings their humbleness... like you, but not exactly Or so you'd like to believe, despairingly, hopelessly Helplessly You'd like to believe you're different from them Who are nothing much, but torment others And enjoy doing it. "No animal comparison please" -- says every animal Rational being,
You don't wash your hands. You build up awful commemorations, Memorials, graves, Huge graveyards with their white erected crosses After battles or just massacres
And so you must continue, desperately thinking you are innocent and others always to blame Because otherwise your wounds would be lethal A poison extinguishing your flames Expectations, Hopes, Self-images Trascendence, Spirituality, Culture
And all your masks would collapse

Nació mi hija con el rostro ensangrentado/ y no me la dejaron ver despacio./ Nació mi hija con el rostro ensangrentado/ pero me la quitaron de las manos.//
Mi hija ahora ya va a hacer tres años/ y habla conmigo y ella ve mi rostro./ Mi hija ahora ya va a hacer tres años/ y canta y piensa pero ve mi rostro.//
Yo ahora ya no me pregunto/ por qué se ama a un rostro ensangrentado.//
