    Things you don't deserve

    I loved you
    like they love hierarchies

    the order of the hungry days on the calendar

    the perfect and disturbing number of the edges of the curves

    of your face

    the sequential order

    ribonucleic

    of the words stuck, dried

    in our suspended moments

    like soap bubbles

    destined to burst in a while

    I loved you

    between the wet sheets

    where I lost myself

    dissolving votes

    dissolving knots

    dissolving myself

    deconstructing my artistic velleity

    unnecessary, at this juncture

    no, not now, not here

    when I have in front of me the opera omnia

    Your body naked and silent

    and free

    and dull and without explanation

    I survived

    at the end of the ideals

    I was little

    he lit the television

    fires were lit in the streets

    walls collapsed

    flags were burned

    - it was believed - it was right

    I also believe

    That I was right

    the righteous, yes, the righteous

    think too much

    and are destined to die

    and in fact I 'm dancing with Thanatos

    For some years now ,

    Actually since I've been alive,

    and what can you do it´s my life , the life, mine .

    I have like a worm inside

    An infiltration , which corrodes the walls of the soul

    even when - just when -

    I think I'm happy

    When my hands tight slightly that dirty piece of cloth

    which they say is happiness

    A trickle of sadness

    that form immense chasms

    huge stalactites

    cosmic, karst * landscapes in which to lose

    not happy , anyway

    a black hole at the center of my solar plexus

    for all the defeats of history

    summarized blissfully in me

    in all my mistakes - the compulsion to repeat

    and in my complete nullity

    I would like to be born

    in the steppes of a not well-known sovietic

    socialist republic

    unskilled worker, perhaps foreman

    a piece in a bigger design

    gaping and bumpy, but bigger than me

    the dream of dreams of real socialism
    more real than a punch in the face

    or than the cold when is thirty degrees below zero

    that takes your breath away

    But I lose myself

    without points of reference

    I wait for you at home, listlessly ,

    I and all the weight of my nullity '

    sixty pounds to be exact

    in hospital I have been greased -

    I would like to sink

    inside of me

    tossed inside

    like a glove

    and show you all my inmost being ,

    the hideous tangle of intestines knotted, but never like thoughts

    if this could help in any way

    I would like to be a puppet

    For a good firewood

    to be cut to get us chairs, stools

    I would like to be helpful to someone about something

    in this senseless life

    in which I am a bank account

    a customer, a data of market

    a vacuum to lose

    I'm not worth 'cause I do not work , I haven´t studied enough

    'cause I do not have kids, ' cause my phone is from 2000´s

    I just want to die

    rot in the bed , in the secrecy of a forest

    soak in the silence

    become grass

    trees that synthesize nutrients through me

    devoured by the wild beasts by worms by flies

    be finally

    one

    Stop thinking

    stop loving you

    stop trying to be happy and being sad because I can´t be whole happy

    should love you less

    love you otherwise

    - you would not even realize of -

    and not feel anymore this dark lump

    enveloping

    in the place of the heart
