Suenan los ecos angelicales
De un pasado inevitable,
Como maravillas invisibles
Que, siendo elementos de la idolatria,
Se han tornado en sangrientas espinas,
Presas de la mutacion,
Se malgastan, perdidas en su nombre,
Indignas del momento al que las anclo.
La memoria duerme en los ojos,
En el gris gesto de acercarme,
A contemplar si en tus labios hay sonrisa,
O es que todo paso es equivoco...
Una muerte presunta en un lugar dudoso,
El destierro conjunto del significado y el placer,
Una herida de odio y resignacion.
-
Tu cielo nublado,
Tu cancion temblorosa,
Tu caricia falaz,
Tu beso triste,
Tu grandilocuencia,
Tu enaltecimiento,
Tu tragedia,
Tu fuerza
Que me desfallece el alma.

Revolution is my name.
I'll define your lives: Despair.
-
La gran huella de la horca sobre tu patio,
El distintivo estandarte de tu prision
Flameando contra el viento calido
De la represion estatal,
El silencio de la mañana cristalina
Sin humo negro ni pobre,
El diario que mancha los dedos
De quienes arrastran los ojos contra la novedad,
El golpe muerto de un martillo contra la pared,
Y el grito de miles
Que desemboca en los tuneles de la ciudad,
Tu madriguera es mi madriguera,
Basural eterno y siempre-creciente,
Tumor enaltecido,
Imposible,
Donde entierran los nombres de mi ciudad.

Gracias por marchar.
Y vire mi rostro hacia el cuerpo que habia caido, observe su fragilidad ahora que se habia desecho la persona que yo conocia, eran evidentes mi pesar y mi congoja, rapidamente nombres y momentos vividos se habian adherido a las cenizas que flotaban entre las pesadas rafagas de aire, el fuego prometia una tumba serena de raidas flores y tormentos silenciosos, un templo chamuscado de historia desdeñadas. Alli yacia mi amigo, mi compañero y alli yacia un cadaver que no era nadie y no haria nada. La tierra misma podria ser olvidada en esos momentos y nada significaria su desaparicion, asi de finita eran las palabras que merecia la muerte.
Como un soplo entre la brisa de una tormenta vecina, insignificante es la lagrima que rueda por mi piel y tonta es la ilusion de que el fin no es repentino.
¿Que fria coraza teje esta tumba que arde y asesina lo que fuimos, que tierra reseca yace debajo de mis pies, que el mundo rapidamente no conoce nombres ni formas?
He hallado la muerte desabrida, inutil, insolente. He hallado que yo tambien puedo morir.

Empuja la espina.
Seduceme con tu lienzo,
Señala avido la manera en que,
Temblando, matas el pincel,
Dibuja los contornos sagrados
Del cuerpo que tanto has amado,
No dejes que me perturbe el sol
O el viento que trae polvo
De caminos plagados de chusma,
Haz esta diferencia
Entre muertos y vivos,
Nombrados con canto y risa,
Entinta la tragedia, pero,
Por sobre todas las cosas
Que arden en esta hoguera,
Bebeme como vino,
Deslizame dentro de ti.
[A tientas, destrozame.]

A dead tree.
Uphilll,
Crowning the way
A festering corpse,
Towering through clouds
And murders,
A brand in our land,
Here,
The Carrion Lord lies,
Roots and seeds are his bed,
Empty bones,
Graves undone,
Waste and demise,
Godless,
He lies a sleeping death,
A wonder for those
Who breath and laugh,
A cry of despair
In a whisper that barely,
Just barely,
Escapes through my lips.

Nothing has a taste, nothing last
Nothing means much
Not now nor yesterday
And perhaps,
The days to come aren't that grand.
Nothing blazes and shines,
Nothing lives, nothing thrives,
For all things come to pass,
And too a silence comes,
A voice broken
In a recipient apathethic
To things unremarkable,
For lost are all things,
And names and colors
Lost in the remembering
Of names undeserving,
Nothing wills the life
Of the carcass, of the skin,
Stone-like eyes,
Were once everything shone
-
[Who made the man so weak?
So fragile to those things that lurk in the mind,
To my dreams of days gone by,
And to a future that, i know, will never come true.
Who made me a liar, a traitor,
Who made me a cold-faced bastard?
Oh, but all things go down,
Washed down in a bottle or two.]

Knightly Knives of the Knave.
I was a knave.
So i grabbed a knive.
And lost my Knightship.
All in one stroke.

Hearthbound.
Slave.
To a saying much too loud,
To a doing, a trying,
That transmutates
Emptyness
Into a wall
Much too high.
And master.
To them all,
Unwanted, unneeded,
But existant all the same,
I'm as real as it gets.
A closed hand,
Never to reach out to them.
I'm but a slave that knows nothing but pain
In a place built to endure,
I'm but a master of self-pitty,
The apathetic spectator
Of the misery you're building
Up into the sky.
[I'm hearthbound to the land where i'll lay in bones and dust. Only death teaches you how to love.]

Drown in the stain of sin.
Pleasure exhumes the pain
The night bursts into flames
Dance Helena Dance
If I cut off your arms and
I cut off your legs would
you still love me anyway?
The Misfits - Helena.
The night bursts into flames
Dance Helena Dance

I cut off your legs would
you still love me anyway?
The Misfits - Helena.
I close the gap to the bridge,
Still hearth of stone,
To the place where omens were told,
Down in the rain of winter's hold...
Should i know where i am?
This nowhere land,
Above deep grass and below grey sky,
Where does it take me,
To earth,
Plains, hills,
Rocklands and wastelands,
Where do i keep my path,
Everwhere,
Where do i find the last place?

I got no word.
For this splitting apart,
May it be
I'm not used to walk
Must be
The years underground
In caves of frozen suns
I can't define
The way the beating goes away
Till sleeping is all i can do.
This slow decay
Where i stop.

Till sleeping is all i can do.

Clap twice.
Inevitable.
La muerte que se vuelve cotidiana,
El periodo de voces secas,
Hambre de mundos que quietos,
No saben girar.
Impredecible.
El susurro que se vuelve gesto,
El temblor del corazon
Y enzañado el sol,
La sombra que te muta
Hasta que queda ahi,
A Dirty Motherfucking God.

Oui, c'est finite.
Me gustaria hablar frances,
Mi tragedia estupida y semanal pareceria interesante.
Protege moi

Break that rusted nail.
Please, please.
Break it, tore it,
Spit it, rip it
'till it's all clear
No more nails
In this cross,
No place to mend
Things undone
Please, oh please,
Hide it in your hands
So i can't tell
Where did my hell go.
Dirty, motherfucking whore.

Blackbird flies away.
She stops,
Halts in mid-air
The frozen fly
Of the raven that croaks
Ebon pale,
Calling for something
Gone,
She tores through
Deep into past-time,
Lonely bird,
You break the ribcage
Of the prison that holds you
Forever there,
In a place
Not here,
Out
Somewhere
Withouth walls
Nor sand,
A place within.
You ask me not,
You forget me not,
As though,
Names cannot be lost
In that slumbering pursuit
Of pearl-white air,
Thou came, maiden,
Fair, unspoiled.
Thou left now,
A broken host
to memories best undone,
Of to, gone to,
Places where rivers run amok
While death sleeps
And the moon dreams,
Places out of misery
High in the night-tread of silverspun webs.
I heard the call in your dreams: Please, end this.

Quiet, quiet now.
El arbol se desenmarañaba como un ejercicio de arquitectura alienigena, sus raices oscuras y pululantes embistian con euforia la tierra debil y quebrantada, no habia resistencia posible para la posesion que se permitia. Las aves, que fueran de trino alto y profundo, ahora meditaban, dando pequeños saltos sobre sus ramas con miedo a despertar a quien fuera que durmiese aqui. Inclusive el sol que conquistaba el dia no amedrentaba las ramas mas altas, la fuerte sabana de hojas verdes y salvajes resplandecia contra su luz sin inmutarse ni reprochar su destino. Como una araña que teje sus brazos, él extendia sus brazos queriendo abarcar el mundo entero, entrelazandose con el viento y el humo de la ciudad, ajeno a otros que quisieran desestimarlo o reprocharle, el existia, a pesar de nosotros.
En cambio, el miedo en mi se transformaba en respeto, yo le concedia al gigante de mi patio todo el sueño que necesitara, fuera dia o noche, el podia permanecer ahi mismo, absolutamente quieto, a la espera de alguna hora prometida o un final exhaustante, mientras que yo, vigilaba un poco distraido, con una revista en mano, y haciendo como que no habia nada de raro en todo esto.

Graveflower.
Exquisite,
The purulent beheading that transverses here,
The dying of subtlety
And the overcoming of agony.
Exquisite,
The inhalation of fumes most foul,
Remains best forgotten,
And the ignorants still lay claim,
Exquisite,
The ill-suited answer from your lips,
As though, you know what the blade conceals,
But what will i say, if your lying cannot be denied?
Exquisite,
While bleeding and torn,
It is that you utter no word or response,
No more will you plunge your disdain,
Exquisite,
The minutes of observation,
The stalking of your bones,
And all the innocent ones,
That'll know no moment of peace.
I lay the bones bare and the treason clear,
Death will ever be vigilant.
And to you, this graveflower i'll seed, for you to remember me, while the night creeps in.

Burning our bed.
And the world is on fire,
But fire burns so bright tonight!
''To those afraid of the end of the world.''
