Lija Y Terciopelo

Wake up attentive, watch how the sun mends,
how it sews me to the mattress,
and like this, for sure, I won't need to look
or raise my voice, to see how it runs wild,
how it burns me in the mouth, and as soon as I go
to the corner, come on, let's go,
you know who has arrived and we must be careful,
even the spider legs get tangled in her hair,
when she kisses, the ground trembles,
and I dreamed of warming what's below the belly button,
I dreamed that I wanted to dream of you,

that's what we are, you and I, the sky and the ground,
pranks and love, laziness and sleeplessness,
sandpaper and velvet,
undertake it, no, no, for me
this flight is made of a piece of cardboard,
and if it fails, we'll invent it, clothes off,
the bills are already coming out, and to kiss whatever I can
in the time we have left and come slowly
and lean in to see what happens on the balcony of the pacheca
which is the balcony of my house.
