In the park
Because I go on being a child
And I want to enjoy myself,
Share with me your laughter,
With me, that I love you so much.
Do I have a sympathetic face?
Why did you laugh?
I don’t know. Ha, ha, ha.
What’s your name?
My name is María.
What’s yours?
My name is Quique.
What can we play to?
Sure you would like the ball.
Ha, ha, ha, ha…, some touches.
Which school do you go to?
I go to Martyr Sisters.
Well, I go to Martyr Brothers.
They are same Company. The world is better with them –she said.
Yes, it was a good thing the good people had a complot –he said.
Revolution was it –both said laughing.
Then she put in some questions.
Did you see how they invaded countries to obtain richness?
Did you hear what those presidents said, those governors?
And their bombastic gestures completely ridiculous?
Most of the world’s population
Suffered Famines, Slavery, Misery, Poverty,
Exploitation.
And he said very confident:
Yes indeed. Of course I know. I was witness.
I saw them and I heard them,
I saw them doing grand manners.
Like my parents say,
They were pure shit, ridiculous to the extreme to say
it’s enough,
And how badly they did everything,
How badly one could breathe!
They stared at each other and then he added:
It’s been a good history,
True is we have in mind since childhood
The dream of collective happiness,
A tale of an Ideal Republic,
Communism Goodness, Harmony.
I’m learning to speak like you do –he said finally.
Can’t we play to something else not being the ball?
Ha, ha, ha, ha. I haven’t got toys here, only the ball.
But I’m not going to play,
I enjoy it speaking with you.
Well, then, you know what? –she asked and remained
waiting.
What? –he asked.
How important Revolution is.
When we are older
We shall teach our children
To be good always,
And we shall tell them what happened,
Because we, the witnesses, we are many.
