The Last Grain

"There is no way out, there is no place, there are no mornings, or anything like you expect. There is no leakage nor we have no place"

No Exit.

The last month of the year begins with a reminder to the fight against AIDS and a tribute to all those millions of people who over the past three decades has left the disease.

December feels,
As a moan,
As a lament,
Like... a feeling,
Turned into song.

December move,
Like a heartbeat,
As a commandment,
Quick... or very slow,
Looking for consolation.

December dies,
As a barking,
As a moment,
As... an embarrassment,
Among so much confusion.

December is feared,
As a punishment,
As a fragment,
Fragile... gruesome,
Cold and without salvation.

December Fur.

Diciembre se siente,
Como un quejido,
Como un lamento,
Como… un sentimiento,
Convertido en canción.

Diciembre se mueve,
Como un latido,
Como un mandamiento,
Rápido… o muy lento,
Buscando consolación.

Diciembre se muere,
Como un ladrido,
Como un momento,
Como… un desconcierto,
Entre tanta confusión.

Diciembre se teme,
Como un castigo,
Como un fragmento,
Frágil… truculento,
Frío y sin salvación.

Piel de Diciembre.

Suddenly last Christmas,
Absence of life and happiness,
Suddenly darkens the clarity,
Without dreams, without soul, without sincerity.

Suddenly a last toast,
For those who are no longer,
Suddenly a last ellipsis,
Between Christmas and new year's Eve.

Suddenly last Christmas,
Devoid of soul from iniquity,
Suddenly the dark Queen,
Without sleep, without a soul in solitude.

Suddenly a last Christmas.

De repente la última navidad,
Ausencia de vida y de felicidad,
De repente oscurece la claridad,
Sin sueños, sin alma, sin sinceridad.

De repente un último brindis,
Por aquellos que ya no están,
De repente un último elipsis,
Entre Nochevieja y navidad.

De repente la última navidad,
Carentes de alma entre iniquidad,
De repente reina la oscuridad,
Sin sueño, sin alma en soledad.

De Repente una Última Navidad.

The magic of Christmas,
It disappears with time,
The years and the reality,
They put the mystery.

There are White Christmas,
Black, red and Hawthorn,
A time to give thanks,
And another time for oblivion.

The essence of the Nativity,
It is not a gruesome dogma,
Love and brotherhood,
Your reason and your criterion.

There are good Christmas,
Bad, regular, and wine,
A time to give thanks,
And another time to forget.

La magia de la navidad,
Desaparece con el tiempo,
Los años y la realidad,
Se anteponen al misterio.

Existen navidades blancas,
Negras, rojas y de espino,
Un tiempo para dar gracias,
Y otro tiempo para el olvido.

La esencia de la natividad,
No es un dogma truculento,
El amor y la fraternidad,
Su razón y su criterio.

Existen navidades buenas,
Malas, regulares y de vino,
Un tiempo para dar las gracias,
Y otro tiempo para el olvido.
