To Esme, the Real<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Never had I seen such a beautiful statue so forgotten:
\u201cReading contemporary novels, woman of oxidized copper.\u201d

All the places the University lacked were beside you.
And I, so tired of so much emptiness,
wanted to overflow your eyes:
those two clearings embroidered with moon and night that,
unraveled, would they cover my fear?

Fate already knew it by heart for me:
you will meet a tarot reader,
a gypsy a gypsy
(Esmeralda)
and she will read your lips.

You read cancer:
that I was dying
from your fingers walking in my hand.

And maybe because I spat between my laughs,
or maybe because I laughed my destiny away,
you pretended to read contemporary novels
on top of a paint-chipped bench
beside my stony portrait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
