BULLET TRAIN !

 

  

He moves away audacious, fleeting fugitive.

Six hundred kilometres in an hour.

Like silver bullet in high arrogance

He is symbol of an era that worships him. 

 

The metallic railways he devours.

He is a like a furtive harquebus. 

Modern, costly and ostensive,

Provokes admiration, exclusive   

 

I do not discuss its esthetical elegance

Is a matter of crucial importance

That we discuss its utility

 

Don’t permit that because of its futility

We finish calling to the ambulance

And at the end consider him a murderer

 

 SHADY CITY


Relentlessly… acid rain….
is falling continuously…
(It had been rain some day).
Street….Never lonely, shadows and shows,
So, so…shady shows, shadowy streets.
Muddy human souls, cruel crowds, empty bowls, hands,

Smoke and fuel that provoke wars.
Smokes of glory, empty of principles.
A hollow, a show, a shadow and a bare plate.
Empty of glory, fin secular hands.

 
Drugs and scare, violet violence
On violet dreams.
Abrupt, interrupt, disrupt, sudden, rushed,
a hundred feet insect falls under a car…. 

Tongue on Tango. Argot of the dirty city,
The city of the dirty money. A dirty angel…
There’s a muddy injure in his small hand.
Scuff, ouch, it hurts, a pain restrains me.
Why me? No bread, no brotherhood, no breath…

In the middle of the muddy rubbish,
Only dreams of glory. 
 In the muddy city in an empty world, 
 I am the child, the baby,
A rabbit,
 A bit.

LITTLE ANT


Little ant went through the grass,

with lot of hope and little ass.

She carried an enormous leaf

over her little, little back.

What a surprise she had...

when the big luggage fell to floor.

What a nice gesture I recognize

when she instantly recovered

her green lunch.

Because she didn´t hesitate

when she had to get to work.

So we must be like little friendly ant.

We must not care about be tired.

We need to be like this small creature

and not reject the hardest work.

 

THE FABLE OF THE VIOLET AND THE ROSE

A humble violet was blossoming

Hiding her lovely face from human eyes.

She was afraid to show her colors naive
And so, let her head fall down under the leaves.

Near to her, Mrs. Rose felt proud of her own magnificence
She laughed at her friend’s modesty as if it were timidity, a nonsense.

 

The rose was full of pride and repeated

 “ I’m the best one in the flowery city”

“No one can defeat my proverbial beauty”

“Human eyes, look in my direction! You will be charmed”

 

The gardener listened

to the rose’s exaltation

And came closer to admire her perfection

 

He removed her out 

To decorate the house.

On a flowery pot far from the sun.

Now the garden has not roses

But violets. 

 

It is never good to call attention in extreme

It’s better to be humble without loosing self-esteem.
