The avaton of membranes

I keep my thoughts within that soft membrane of sorrow that joins our faces. I wonder what you are doing out of this moment with all the danger to prison us in it, or would you prefer us staying outside of time? Just a step away, too enough for the eternity. Also this fluff of breeze tonight could not bear to hold any time on it, it would destroy its innocence.

I wonder why we need walls for protecting ourselves instead of glass. Is it because every church has its 'avaton', the very sacred place where you can all alone and free to touch your very first root, to fight with all the centuries your face carries? You, we, are a church. When you are suckling the blood of your own heart, your scream needs dignity and pride. It is that only that you protect. In front of others' eyes you would have to dramatize miserable emotions. Their eyes would be the last limit, the ultimate prison. And you see, man is a crying grace, a fanatic relative to his sins. But is not that same impudence that made him standing on his two feet?

'He had such a miserable life but his death was such a shine' a writer I love used to tell this... so it is not for my poor life you are here, you already has chosen to put me on the other side of the limits. No problem, just watch your step in the crack between.

I will not ask for your land or your age, let us stay like that; two unfinished screams tending to each other in the middle of the night.

Queen of Hearts

Y si tan sólo el horizonte estuviera para validar estos temores íntimos de fin del valor humano, si tan sólo estas palabras me dijeran qué quiero de ti, qué espero de las gentes que veo a diario, de tantas relaciones cruzadas que no me han dado ni una gota de aliento para esta delicada empresa de tener que sobrevivir en un mundo de sabios comandantes, de dedicación privada, de sintonías de bachata rosa en las que navegar hacia el borde de los sentimientos profundos, de historias de la historia de uno y todos los desencuentros…

Y si tan sólo el agua que suena bajo la atenta mirada del transeúnte sirviera para mirar a los intereses más extraños de esta experiencia marítima, de esta reina de corazones, quizá tocaríamos que lo que pasa, pasa y no pasa, queda y no queda, junto a las lágrimas de la mujer madura, junto a las pisadas de los niños sobre la arena...

Y si tan sólo quedara ese interés oculto entre personas para darle parámetros al libro de la vida, para formar parte de lo previsible, esperado, planificado, perseguido; si ese deseo material de aproximación humana demostrara hasta qué punto vale la percepción como percepción, el juicio crítico sobre todo el resto…. si tan sólo valiera la vida para vivir, tendríamos entonces esa parcela de conocimiento inigualable donde asentar nuestras esperanzas, nuestros gozos, nuestros delirios, nuestras angustias, nuestras eternidades de bolsillo...., la vida en fin, y en estado puro.
