emergency X

emergencia X
in the original Spanish



saying yes flows
saying no enriches

saying yes adds
saying no multiplies

saying yes caresses
saying no stimulates flight

in the long run in the short
a rope so long it has only one end

he comes everything converges
the parts of the body the verbal
tenses the concepts and the senses

unity never as much
as before the higher joy of accompanying him
and the imaginary possibilities of pain

Translated by Curtis Bauer

“emergency” is from Temperatura voz [Voice Temperature] (Barcelona, Pre-Textos, 2010).
