Desinflado

De vez en cuando sueño en ti.
Son sueños chicos, como el ojo de un alfiler,
Que entrañan mi ser en un taller
De esperanza, pero insistí
Y…

Cuando No Puedo Mas

Cuando no puedo mas,
Porque me parece que no estas,
El día se oscurece, se nubla,
Y mi mente de libertad pasa a la jaula…

A Walk in Mist

A mirthful drizzle bathed me
As I walked in wistful fancy.
This autumn night angry
While I played the dandy.

Silencio

From an altogether faint young woman.
The things she says pass into deep despair
With the soulless lamentation of a villain.

Our skins turning darker under the sun’s grace
And your delicate hands played, in place,
Through your curly…

Return

I drove to the sea on my first day back.
It had been more than a year
Since the growling ocean
Sang at my feet.
The insipid cold wind–black–
Was…

Plea

There is a sadness of the heart,
A wicked lonely emptiness,
Where I stand alone and friendless
Where I know the villains dart.

I wish that you would listen 
To the music all around 
To the beating of the ground
