Repenbtism at sunset
Joseph Berolo 1934 (Bogotá)
I am only the reflection of the light that flows from the bards of the world, and poet because I live in their vicinity
Repentism at sunset
Because in life
we are travelers of the myth
and the mirage
and the oaks and the palms
in the distant blue
all have hints of madness
and a few possible watchtowers-
Because we feel the scream
of the flesh that yearns
for nails on a trembling cross
at 3 o'clock in the afternoon ..
Because we feel the river
and the foam and the fall
and the spasm
of the rock and entrails ...
because being able
to be we are not
and we are in the mere event.
Because at the end of the day ...
we are the fruit of Genesis,
and we are the orgasm
of eternal living
eternal creation.
About this poem
