Babel

Someone messed up the streets
with mental hygiene prohibitions
who separated the colors, built the boxes
that you must hide.

Babel divided the planet
locked up in its dungeons
the nerve of the south,
the one who closed the doors
building walls that you don't jump over.

Someone took in their hands
everyone's hands
confirmed their law.

Who taught the doctrines?
wisdom that doesn't quench our thirst.

Babel planted flags,
sang anthems in different languages
the one who gives us tobacco
and sour wine to entertain us.

Babel forgot that man is the wolf
of man who will devour him
and no longer expects anything else
but for you to leave with another and not return.
