you
slowly
s l o w l y
while next to you
someone talks
about decline
about time
about the endless crisis
the nation
finds itself in
and behind
the nervous 1
it’s raining
still the water
doesn’t 2
or cure
the expression
of life
or death
in faces
and some kids
seem happy
beneath the 3
not thinking
how much pain there is
only a few meters away
from them
only a few meters away
everyone’s stopped crying
eyes
have dried
in the drying shed
of souls
drips
drips
drips
the cytostatic iv
toward the limbs
that desert
horizontality
eating away
at flesh
and spirit
drips
toward the spirit
and shadow’s
trunk
4 once more
like a jagüey tree
5 its roots
out in the red open
drips
toward the neck
where your pain
and mine
are 6
drips
drips
drips
and later you have
no more 7
you have no more
substances
to recall.
