La dolce vita

Revisited

Faro de Santa Pola

The snotgreen sea,
the scrotumtightening sea,
Mr Joyce would probably write.

Isla de Tabarca

Breakfast under palms

Under palms and Spanish sun

an English breakfast

three days later
four magic months
would end

Thalatta

The sea being the model.

Friday is Skyday

Colmena
iVivimos en celdas
de cristal,
en colmena de aire!
Nos besamos a través
de cristal.
iMaravillosa cárcel,
cuya puerta
es la luna!

Beehive
We live in cells
of crystal
in a beehive of air!
We are kissing each other
through crystal.*
Wonderful prison,
the door of which
is the moon!

* cristal: glass, crystal, water (poetical)

Federico García Lorca (5 June 1898 – 19 August 1936)

Laughing Lhursday*

Find the fault.

* [For first time visitors]:

Roberto Bolaño

Roberto Bolaño (28 April 1953 – 14 July 2003)

Not only at breakfast

Reading endangers stupidity.

Dwarfs and others

Little flower with much power.
Or:
Watching these dwarf pansies
I am coming to think
of certain intellectual dwarfs
and their "followers"
casting gigantic shades
whilst the sun of wisdom
is sinking deepest.*
