La mamá de Darío




Ya casi no me angustio
ni tengo miedo

Cantamos a los gritos
cumbia villera.
Soplamos la chocotorta y
nos mojamos con
manguera

Después llovío.
Corrimos hasta la casa 
y me saqué la ropa. Qué bueno que está 
fumar sin
ropa

Would I ever be able to find my way back into the legion that was at that moment sleeping in Buenos Aires? Maybe I had been cut out forever. Maybe I was awake for a reason larger than a lover in bed and morning coffee. Maybe it was just the flashback. Two years, ten months, and fourteen days. The wiry guy indicated with polite gestures that I should go next. I
