Uña Y Carne

Flesh and Blood

Uña Y Carne

Flesh and blood of an animalUña y carne de animal
that searches, that digs without findingque busca, que escarba sin encontrar
that remain buried between the ground and the wall.que quedan enterrados entre el suelo y la pared.
Desire of an old man whose home burnedDeseo de un viejo que su hogar quemó
tired, weary of his lonelinesscansado, hastiado de su soledad
that was his companion, but not his wife.que fue su compañera, más no su mujer.
She died all aloneElla murió tan sólo
without a warningsin una alerta
without squeezing his armsin apretar su brazo
the moment to leave.el momento de partir.
And he was left all aloneY él quedó tan solo
when he wakes upcuando despierta
no one is by his sideya nadie está a su lado
... the moment to leave.... el momento de partir.
