THE METAMORPHOSIS OF THE WENDIGO
I— don't— want to kill you,
But I want— to be free.
You are the nightmare
That destroys
My sacred sanity.
I— am— lost— in
The road to lunacy.
I'm— going— to— murder you.
Whisper— of the sin.
Your lies pierced my skin.
The pain became a pleasure
A sunshine to me.
Like the thorns
Hurt the soul
With bleeding heart
I'd desired to be normal.
Do not drain
The goodness left in me...
What do you do with my life?
The face of angel
A monster inside.
Attaching the chains
With me.
I feel the amoeba,
It's drilling my brain...
To— feel— the— deliverance
You must be killed tonight
To set me free
Oh yeah... oh yeah...
I'm— not— a human anymore
Now the rage runs in my veins.
The sadness turns
Into strength.
The past dies.
It's the time.
My tears are dead,
Let me drink the sweet nectar
Which flows in your anatomy.
Let me eat
Your spirit:
The key to understand this mistery.
Your ghost is dead.
I've been born again.
Web of Life
To Estefanie Zapata
There was a universe ruled by chaos.
There lived a misunderstood, depressed god.
Wounded in his heart and soul he shed blood.
Lost about space and time in his naos. (1)
He walked forsaken in his pronaos. (2)
However, one day he felt a weird prod.
Then, he saw her bright eyes; she brought the yod (3).
He got blushed and she taught him the taos (4).
In the sea of serenity, they dive.
The miracle: night becomes a Blackneb (5).
A new chance to feel happy and alive.
They noticed the sparks, the colors arrive.
And this god meets hope and love: the life's web.
Sweetly woven is the sacred cobweb...

The Ballad of Cira (Queen of Love)
To Isabel Jaramillo.
Queen Cira, I wonder how you grew up
How you survived obstacles and their cuts.
And yet you shine like a cute buttercup
Your face reminds me the mystic woodcuts.
When the storm comes and sees your anima,
All its fury stops and it admires you.
As it vanished with an amalgama
Of feelings, it says "my lady, thank you."
You have been kindly to the sentinels,
Because for your mercy, our sins you clear.
And when you get to heaven, the angels
and the saints will bow down to you, my dear.
You are going to wear a holy red robe.
Madre
A Melania Jaramillo.
"Para aliviar las horas tristes
de mi callada soledad
me basta... ¡saber que tú existes!
y me acompañas y me asistes
y me infundes serenidad."
Ernesto Noboa y Caamaño.
Lloramos, al nacer,
Pues antes de llegar a la luz,
La muerte, nos ve a los ojos y susurra su Angelus,
Sabiendo que va a vencer.
Mas Dios, con su sabiduría,
Puso en nosotros la esperanza y la fe,
En una tierna criatura
Que me sonríe y mi madre dice ser .
Así, ella, misericordiosa, me abraza
Y mis nervios se calman con calidez.
Y en cada etapa de mi vida sigue viva aquella brasa,
Es mi estrella, cada vez que siento que voy a caer.
Mi madre y su amor son como un caligrama:
Obra de arte, magia, la bella dama
Que cambió el corazón del cruel Kurama*
Y sostiene de toda la familia, la eterna flama.
*Yoko Kurama: Personaje del famoso manga japonés Yuyu Hakusho creado por Yoshihiro Togashi.
God put the purest gift in your heart: love.
