Travels and Abuttal

 

 1

 

 The soul

Shines in its eternal abuttal.

Draws isolated circles

Or races the wind?

 

2

 

Contemplates

 At the caverns of the world

 Like the angles' silence,

 A thirst

 Of the corroded edge

 From a not alert 

Dream.

 

  3

 

 The purple shadow

 Like astonishing klaxons,

 Its horizons

 A river

 Of glittering blood, 

 Eclipse

 Pulsates in all the world

Draws signs

 .From a shed dream

 

4  

 

 Crooked

The eyes of the sun,

Make the pearls

Of the stars heavy

 Which were dissolved

 Like beads of silk brocade

 .In the dish of the cosmos

 

5

 

 Whirlwinds

Ruffle their feathers

 Like a legendary dream,

  Stretches

 In between the whiteness of the snow

And the abuttal wind.

 

  6

 

Sea gulls

Behind far away hedges

Pensive in a flash,

 Inhales

The dark's soul

 In the unknown heart.

 

7

 

 Days

 long for departure

 Its bright dawn

 Is the counting key

Of what's in between

 No ends.

 

8

 

Bevies of butterflies

 Sculptured

 Like the moon's pupils,

Lick the stars' giggles  

Falling

Like smashed pitchers

 .From dreaming boys

 

 9

 

 The pearls' nests

 Brimful

 With malice of the eyes.

 

10

 

 The horizons

 Gush

 From a distance,

 And the waves'

preparedness

For an eternal departure.

 

 11

 

 The queues of the night

 Tickle the light's branches,

And the horizon's dew

 Drowns

 In the swoon of fate.
