Over barren ground I stand, my brain cells refusing further noise abuse.
I dream of a new device that can mute the whole world and the reinvention of the country (as opposed to rural).

<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">As I walked out of the metro station, going to meet my ex-landlord in an attempt to reach a deal whith her, which basically consisted in me paying some money that I did not myself owe to her, the view opened symmetrically cut in two sides.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">I pushed the stroller on the sidewalk.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">On my left was the road separated in four lines, flooded with cars, noisy, full of car waste mixed in the terribly humid, sticky air; on my right laid an immense park so perfectly green, and calm in its lack of people that I was just expecting to hear its pulse and heartbeat.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">And it occured to me how lately everything presented itself to me in this format of contrasts as if to show simpathy for my own unrest.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">I had promised something to my husband that morning and as I walked remembering the words I had said to him I started to panick. &#8220;No I can not do that, I won`t be able to, I just can`t, I can`t!&#8221; I said to myself and my heart just went crazy, beating violently. But after two minutes I calmed down and said the opposite: &#8220;Of course I can, I just have to focus on what is really important.Besides it might work really well, who knows, right?&#8221;.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">It is not hard for one to know what is important, but to accept that deep inexpungible knowledge and follow it.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">And lately it had become important to me to be on my own. The thought of having a place, alone with my kids and arrange my life as simply as possible was becoming dear to me and I could wholly grasp freedom in those shots of self confidence and that sane lack of desire for anything wordly.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">But my calm wasn`t meant to be and I know, I know that the only thing that kept me safe was the trust that there surely is a situation, the perfectly opposite to this one and that I would reach there.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">And that blissful thought of God.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">Upon entering the office where I had my appointment, I found a bench and sat down.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">My book<br />
this book,<br />
the earring in my lung,<br />
the cherries<br />
the cherries<br />
and the blood spot.<br />
My God<br />
my God<br />
forget me not!<br />
the flower<br />
the flower?<br />
or the blood spot.<br />
The lighthouse<br />
that floats<br />
on the iris of my eye<br />
this stem that strangles me<br />
is that I<br />
The pool<br />
the river<br />
this sanitary thought<br />
hanging<br />
hanging<br />
at the back of my throat<br />
Mother<br />
my mother<br />
did you see?!<br />
this beating<br />
this beating<br />
within and against me!<br />
Your face,<br />
that smile<br />
a pin in my brain<br />
Mother<br />
my mother<br />
take me home sane!<br />
The chair of your voice<br />
I drink from my mug<br />
Billy!<br />
Billy!<br />
My hands are are cut!</font></p>
