Bolts of lightning from the sky
And plant them in fields of life.

Charge somber thoughts
With unexpected flash,
You, my lightning in the soil!

Time
And how it slips through my fingers
Without putting its ring on them,

And I remain simply its lover

And fear has expanded,
The forests have dwindled,
There are less animals now,
less courage and less lightning,
less beauty
and the moon lies bare,
deflowered by force and
then abandoned.

SECOND SUN

So much blood
Has been spent in this world,
But we have not yet built a sun of blood.

Listen, my friend,
To these trembling words:
A second sun will be born
of our blood
in the form of a heart.
