I´m in the world
where young and old
are bought and sold,
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Peace and War
are bargained for,...
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Money talks
to Doves and Hawks,...
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Kith and Kin
are Moving in,
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Thought Control
is taking toll,
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Jokers Make
Believe the Fake,
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Lies are Flies
that fill the Skies
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Boom and Bust
are both a must,
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Law is Force
a Trojan Horse,
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Good and Bad
are iron-clad,
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Pride in Race
is losing Face,
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Talk is cheap,
and Isms creep,
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Truth is what,
if not a Plot,
but I´m not of it.
I´m in the world
where Death is worth
as much as Birth.

Yo tampoco.

bien podrían haber salido de tu mano estas palabras (y si las elegiste, es porque también salieron de tus manos).

Yo tampoco soy de ahí y, a veces, duele.

Tu Hermógenes Cayo es conmovedor. Prelorán sufre un olvido injusto. En realidad él ya no lo sufre, sino todos los que se lo pierden.


Te abrazo muy, muy fuerte (insuflás vida en estos días de invierno porteño).

PÁJARO DE CHINA dijo...

acerqué tanto la cara a la pantalla para ver tus acompañamientos que me la comí.

subiré al pajarito los míos (recién se lo dije a fackel). muchas cosas nos hermanan.

Bashevis dijo...

Pajaro, dios te bendiga. Nuestro dios.

Podria escribir esas palabras, todas menos una o dos de las partes. Una parte evidente, el mayor error de Moondog, su gran cerrazón... no se hasta que punto una pose.
