hay cosas peores que
estar solo
pero a menudo lleva décadas
darse cuenta de ello
y más a menudo
cuando esto ocurre
es demasiado tarde
y no hay nada peor
que
un demasiado tarde

oh yes

there are worse things than
being alone
but it often takes decades
to realize this
and most often
when you do
it’s too late
and there’s nothing worse
than
too late

aún recuerdo los caballos
bajo la luna
aún recuerdo dar a los caballos
azúcar
blancos rectángulos de azúcar

ice for the eagles

I keep remembering the horses
under the moon
–
I keep remembering feeding the horses
–
sugar
white oblongs of sugar
–
more like ice,
and they had heads like
eagles
bald heads that could bite and
did not.
The horses were more real than
my father
more real than God
and they could have stepped on my
feet
but they didn’t
they could have done all kinds of horrors
but they didn’t.
I was almost 5
but I have not forgotten yet;
o my god they were strong and good
those red tongues slobbering
out of their souls
