In the park
Th elderly dog carefully leads
his master to the park.
Around of the park, around of the world.
Discreetly the dog waits for his master
who is pumping and exhausted
pretending to pee, the dog,
in order for the man not to feel bad.
Obediently pretending to be tired,
the dog takes him home.
Everyday I observe the pair copies
of each other in their weakness
and I feel comfortable
in this uncomfortable world.
A dog with a deep wise look
and an old man in silent despair.
The dog pulling the leash just enough
for the patron not to feel offended.
Not to show his age and injuries.
In this velvet relationship of authority
dog and man have found balance.
Maybe time is to blame that made them just the same.Maybe death that covers them
in affection already with its frozen wings.
The warrenties of God
Savonarola became great
when the bank of Medici collapsed.
Gray Florence of 1494,
guilty canvases of Botticelli,
an art which is ashamed of its existence
and a God who stands on your chest
with His right knee.
The joy of Life become remorse.
-Take off your velvet clothes immediately,
put on the priestly robe and confess.
Always when a bank collapses like,
the bad moment, the Lehman Brothers,
everyone pretends that they feel regret
for the indulgence of their lives.
While the fanatically religious
mock maliciously taking courage
by identifying their God with the warranties: “Hadn’t we told you that?”
