To Artina

I will take you heart.
I will take your soul out of your body
As though I were God.
I will not be satisfied
With the touch of your hand
Nor the sweet of your lips alone.
I will take your heart for mine.
I will take your soul.
I will be God when it comes to you.

Langston Hughes

Gacela del Amor Imprevisto

Nadie comprendia el perfume
de la oscura magnolia de tu vientre.
Nadie sabia que martirizabas
un colibri de amor entre los dientes.

Mil caballitos persas se dormian
en la plaza con luna de tu frente,
mientras que yo enlazaba cuatro noches
tu cintura, enemiga de la nieve.

Entre yeso y jazmines, tu mirada
era un palido ramo de simientes.
Yo busque, para darte, por mi pecho
las letras de marfil que dicen siempre,

siempre, siempre, jardin de mi agonia,
tu cuerpo fugitivo para siempre,
la sangre de tus venas en mi boca,
tu boca ya sin luz para mi muerte.

Federico Garcia Lorca

To Be Read in the Morning and at Night

My love
Has told me
That he needs me.

That's why
I take good care of myself
Watch out where I'm going and
Fear that any drop of rain
Might kill me.

Bertolt Brecht
