About Me


knapsack, flapjack, not a care in the world.

Fireworks going off in a small room--you'll get hurt, but everyone has fun.

Te recuerdo como eras en el ultimo otono.
Eras la boina gris y el corazon en calma.
En tus ojos peleaban las llamas del crepusculo.
Y las hojas caian en el agua de tu alma.

Cielo desde un navio. Campo desde los cerros.
Tu recuerdo es de luz, de humo, de estanque en calma!
Mas alla de tus ojos ardian los crepusculos.
Hojas secas de otono giraban en tu alma.

The rare that we almost forgot existed.

Those that have something to teach me.
