She was already asleep
\nAnd it was too late for me
\nTo wake up.
\nEyes closed, I watched her dreams:<\/p>\n
A girl raped by her lover
\nA child abused by solitude
\nA wife beaten up to tears
\nTo screams in the middle of the night
\nA brain damage by emotional blackmail
\nAnother wife killing the father of her child
\nOr at least wishing him death.<\/p>\n
A family of invalids
\nOf cancer wombs mothers
\nAnd blind men.
\nOf beauty married to fear
\nOf fear feeding on liver
\nOf rare blood types
\nNo transfusions possible.<\/p>\n
A half woman half man
\nScreaming at night
\nAlone
\nEmbracing death, insanity
\nEscaping the ugliness
\nOf mutilated love.<\/p>\n
A skeleton of her
\nThe grandmother, giver
\nOf life
\nTo cancer
\nTo nonsense family duty
\nTo me
\nTo you.<\/p>\n
But you were already asleep.
\nI saw you dreaming
\nOf the two girls kissing in the kitchen
\nThe holy place of desire
\nWhile their men-in the living room-
\nResearched the origin of the mystery
\nOf the clitoris.<\/p>\n
I saw you dreaming of them,
\nYet I saw you betraying them,
\nAs well.
\nI saw you being both
\nThe saint and the bitch.
\nI saw you crying when they
\nCried
\nTrembling with their desire
\nTheir closed eyes
\nLips
\nLicking teardrops
\nAll over the steps
\nTo the abortion clinic.
\nAll over the body
\nThat knew pleasure only
\nIn proximity to death.<\/p>\n
I saw you and
\nI was there when you carelessly
\nOpened your eye lids
\nTo try and recognize me.
\nI so wanted to join you
\nIn your sleep
\nTo suck the dead milk
\nOut of your nipples
\nTo finally cry together
\nTo scream out loud
\nAnd wake up everybody.
\nBut-unfortunately-you
\nCould not say my name.
\nYou remained asleep.
\nNow with no dreams.
\nAs for me,
\nIt was too late
\nTo wake up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
