Fuss

Fuss!
from the new rich
who look down
on the always poor.
Fuss!
from the white spell
who look down
on the Indian and the mestizo.
Fuss!

So much to travel the world
to enter and realize
the immensity of the offense
with which the common people are treated.
The pain is very deep
in the face of such arrogance
without sense or substance
and with total nonchalance.
The result will be seen
if discord increases!

Here, for nothing, they are credited
with arrogance and shamelessness
when a man without protection
asks for a hand;
with a pull, his honor withers
a fulfilled new rich
who, modern and conceited,
disposes of him very satisfied.
What a tremendous right
to be a stuck-up guy!

The earth is large and composed
of very diverse natives
and although sometimes very scattered
its harmony is evident.
That's why here the protest
in my country of mestizos
that anyone who is more copper-skinned
is put in a box
When the door is slammed first,
I mobilize against it!

The rules will have to be reversed
from heaven and the economy,
to make a green apology
for poetry and reforms,
to invent a hundred platforms
and play ten tambourines.
But there is no better recipe
to hasten consciousness:
"Only love with its science"
as Violeta would say!
