BORN BETWEEN TRASH
born debris from beside the tracks of La Paternal.
Casillas:
grout cardboard, plastic bags
,
odd plates, and old chairs
precariously on the roof so it does not suck milk
fly
sad that she was raped the debris from
Play ,
between
hungry dogs and a horse pulling
rickety carts. Learn from other kids
that the law is strong.
Then comes the paco,
sleep in the station or in the mouth of the subway
when it opens.
After blasting shall be thy name
when right-thinking
register your presence and your early death in their television sets
Your body shakes in the calendar
of despair. Among
garbage beside the tracks of La Paternal.
