Propiedad de la espera
Alejandro Zambra
Trata de sentir el suelo
Sus pies se hunden en la arena seca
Busca sus pies
Detiene el movimiento de sus manos
Ha encontrado sus pies pero no los mira
Todo es igual a como era antes
Necesito explicar que es así,
que todo es igual a un momento anterior,
doloroso.
Supongo que hay mar ante sus ojos
y que ella mira el mar
como mira el centro de un espejo difícil.
Under the Custody of Time
Roberto Rodriguez
She tries to feel the ground
Her feet sink on dry sand
She looks for her feet
She stops the movement of her hands
She has found her feet, but she does not look at them
Everything is as it was before
I need to explain that it is this way,
that everything is like a moment already lived,
painful.
I suppose there is an ocean in her gaze
and that she looks at it
the way she looks at a complex mirror.
