[From a letter by Augusto Al Q'adi Alcalde, 8/12/99]

 

And what will we do with the fishes
that have opened
with their feathers the sluices
dream you dream new mindly
and that this heart wise of bees
be the ripe fig
of the birds offsprings cockatoos
noisy colourful of the longings.

Y que haremos con los peces
que han abierto
con sus plumas las compuertas
soñarte sueño nueva mente
y que ese corazón sabio de abejas
sea el higo maduro
de los pajaros pichones guacamayos
ruidosos coloridos de las ansias
