María Landó
Chabuca Granda
María Landó
The dawn explodes like a statue
Like a statue of wings dispersing through the city
And noon sings a bell of water
Bell of golden water that forbids us loneliness
And the night raises its long glass
Its long, long glass, early moon over the sea
But for María there is no dawn
But for María there is no noon
But for María no moon
Raises its red glass over the waters
María has no time (María Landó)
To lift her eyes
María to lift her eyes (María Landó)
Broken from sleep
María broken from sleep (María Landó)
To walk suffering
María to walk suffering (María Landó)
She only works
María only works, only works
María only works
And her work is someone else's
