telepathic taco shop piropos
(part one from the homeless man)
Mmmmm Mamasita! No sabes.
you cross the street
without seeing me
ignoring
my thoughts
but look this night
to all morenas who
want to fly away
as dreamers soñadoras
on top of piropos
that are kind and gentle,
just look at this homeless man
this night
just look at me
with one look then nurture my existence
because tonight
i tell you there is something different
tonight i am an arrow...
sharp.
salute my glance apparitional
woman with a name
somehow truth is always confession
so my glace will tell you
" i'm alone
like water
without a wave
open
without
ink
i sit
stare
alone
into the street
my eyes
follow nothing
feel nothing
the goose bumps
of solitude
the bones
of rectitude
tonight i feel
to tell you
my life is in
a revolving door
a situation
where i am
always among strangers."
(part II the woman with a name says)
!yo soy las morenas
soñadoras
that want to fly
on top piropos
gentle and kind
one who turns foil from
gum wrappers
into precious metals
found on streets,
tonight i receive
your piropo of truth
because
tonight i am a ghost
transparent
and like to choose
my messages
without feeling
uncomfortable because
i believe in silent
magical telepathic piropos
so sir we are the same
i too
am "Alone
like water
without a wave
open
without
ink
i sit
stare
alone
into the street
my eyes
follow nothing
feel nothing
the goose bumps
of solitude
the bones
of rectitude
tonight i feel
to tell you
my life is in
a revolving door
a situation
where i am
always among strangers."
For this moment
we are the same
under a broken street lamp
we are pieces
of the street
and i'm comfortable with
your magical piropo
because i'm a ghost
and you're the arrow
and we are the unspoken histories
of our time.
