How To Make Arm Warmers Out Of Stockings

Hernandez, Miguel: Elegy


(In Orihuela, your people and mine, I have been dead
as
Ramon Ray Sijé, who both wanted)
.
.
.
I want to be crying the gardener
land you occupy and fertilize,
soul mate so early. Feeding

rain shells and bodies
my useless grief, the discouraged


poppies give your heart for food.
Grief bunches in my side that hurt
hurts to breath.

A hard smack, blow, ice cream,
invisible ax murderer, a brutal shove
has cut you down. No extension

bigger than my hurt, my sad and cry
spells
and feel your death more than my life. Ando

into stubble the dead, and no heat
anyone and without consolation
leave my heart to my business. Early death
up flight, earlier
up early in the morning, early
're rolling on the floor.

forgive not love death,
not forgive careless life,
not forgive the earth or nothing.

In my hands
raised a storm of stones, lightning and loud axes
disaster thirsty and hungry.

I dig the earth with my teeth, I set aside land
side to side with his teeth
dry and warm.

I look at the earth to find you and kiss your noble
skull and desamordazarte
and bring you back.

'll return to my garden and my fig tree by high scaffolding
flowers birding
your soul angelic beekeeper

of waxes and work.
'll return to the sound of the gates of lovers
farmers.

glad the shade of my eyebrows,
and your blood will go to each side contesting
your girlfriend and bees.

Your heart, and crumpled velvet,
a field called almond foam greedy
my lover's voice.

At winged souls of roses almond cream
requires you,
we need to talk of many things,
soul mate, partner.
..

(Spain, 1910/1942)

What Kind Of Mucus Comes Right Before Period

Gironde, Oliver: Point Street

On the terrace of a cafe is a family gray. Spend some breasts looking for a smile crossed the tables. The noise of the motor car for the leaves of the trees. On the fifth floor, someone is crucified to open wide keep a ventana.Pienso where kiosks, street lights, pedestrians, which I enter through the pupil. I feel so full that I have fear of exploding ... Need to leave some garbage on the sidewalk ...
When you reach a corner, my shadow away from me, and suddenly, he throws himself between the wheels of a streetcar.

Galeano, Eduardo: Five centuries of prohibition in the rainbow LINK


THE OTROCIDIO

The Discovery: 12 October 1942, America discovered capitalism. Christopher Columbus, financed by the kings of Spain and the bankers of Genoa, brought the news to the islands of the Caribbean. In his diary of Discovery, the admiral wrote the word 139 times gold and 51 times the word God or Our Lord. He could not tire the eyes of so much loveliness in those beaches, and prophesized November 27: Will all Christendom business in them. And that was not wrong. Columbus believed that Haiti was Japan and Cuba was China, and believed that the people of China and Japan were Indians from India, but it was not wrong.
After five centuries of Christianity the whole business has been wiped out one third of the American forests, is very barren land that was fertile and more than half the population eats fried. The Indians, victims of the most gigantic theft of universal history, continue to suffer theft of the last remnants of their land, and are sentenced to a denial of their separate identity. They are still prohibits live in his own way, are still denied the right to be. At first, the looting and otrocidio were executed in the name of the God of heaven. Now they meet in the name of the god of Progress.
Yet in that identity prohibited and despised some keys gleam yet another possible America. America's blind racism, not see them.

How Do You Play Tech Deck Live

American sky, Daniel: October 12, 1976

Like many others, I realized later the coup. In March 1976 I was 16, began the fifth year of high school and was general secretary of the Student Center (whose president was José Luis López Ibáñez, current tourism official, I believe, in the loose or no national government) and believed that the coup was one of a long list of military uprisings that had accompanied my childhood ("I sleep with pointed-Illia-well, I wake up with Onganía" was a rhyme he had learned from my grandmother). That year we had to organize the event Race Day. I was appointed to write the script of the piece with which we fired from the school. Among the texts that were read, there were fragments of Canto general and I confess that I have lived by Pablo Neruda. Among the songs he played and sang my musician friends then, include that passage of the Cantata Sudamericana says: "Another emancipation, another emancipation / I say / I say you have to conquer / and then yes / yes and then my continent Acuña / a happiness, a happiness / with the little people like you and me. " The history teacher, Ms. Silveyra, and other wives of colonels and captains responsible for our education left the hall immediately (which, in our view, was an insult to the flag ceremonies.) The literature teacher, who secretly I spent my stupid poems then called me to say that all who had participated in the commemoration ran, among other risks, being expelled from school. We had become "red" that were "subversive propaganda", not by the text and songs we chose, but also by the use of the color of the curtain of the theater at my school. Then I realized that something more serious was happening Lanusse. I was a good student and my political contention until then had been channeled into the claim of more toilet paper in the bathrooms and the like. I did not understand what was happening. Did not understand what was happening in my family, distressed and divided by the disappearance of my cousin Fernando Rizzo, of whose books I bought years earlier at bargain prices, had put together my first library. That October 12, my friends and I started to understand what had happened, I began to understand what they meant the crazy aunt travel to the barracks and prisons throughout the country with no luck trying to find his son, and Slowly we were dominating the sadness of a pseudo-life lived in secret and the horror of reality, beginning to get through. Or rather, we who were leaving school, we began to move through a horrible reality a sad witness to something that may never speak with dignity.

How Do I Know If A Scorpio Man Likes Me

Fernandez Retamar, Roberto: Happy


Happy normal, these strange beings,
those who do not have a crazy mother, a drunken father, a child offender,
a house anywhere, an unknown disease,
those who have not been burned by a devouring love,
who lived seventeen of smiling faces and a little more,
's full of shoes, hats archangels,
the satisfied , fat, cute,
the rintintín and his minions, which of course, here,
earners, those who are dear to the hilt,
mice accompanied by flute players,
sellers and buyers,
slightly superhuman knights,
the men dressed as women thunder and lightning,
the delicate, wise, fine,
the kind, candy, groceries and beverages. Happy
birds, manure, stones.
.
But give way those who do the worlds and dreams,
illusions, the symphonies, the words that tear us down
and rebuild us, crazier than their mothers, the most drunken
their parents and their children more criminals
and more consumed by scorching love.
Let them leave their room in hell, and enough.
Roberto Fernandez Retamar
