Sin rodeos



You are here to wear a hat
You are here to grow a crown
You are here to found (not find)
A civilization
You are here to be wise
You are here to be free
You are here to give light
You are here to not judge
And you are here to heal
You are here not to hurt
You are here to imagine
And believe in what you imagine
But only sometimes
To convince of what you imagine
You are here to be judged
You are here to clean up a mess
You are here to not complain
About things like injustice
Or poison…
You are in a world that trembles
On the brink of destruction
As it always has
You are a bomb
You are boiling
You spew water
And breathe fire
You squirt nectar
From your very seems
You can juggle words
Lightly
With the ebb and the flow

You are special
But you are just like everybody else:
Not completely yourself.

Viniste aquí a usar este sombrero
A crecer una corona
Y te toca encontrar –digo, fundar-
Una civilización entera
Viniste a ser sabia
A ser libre
A dar luz
A no juzgar
Y estás aquí para sanar
Y no para doler
Viniste a imaginar
Y a creer en lo que imaginas
Pero sólo de repente
A convencer de lo que imaginas
Vienes a ser juzgada
Y a recoger el tiradero
Y a no quejarte de cosas
Como la injusticia
o el veneno…
Estás en un mundo que tiembla sobre un alfiler
Al borde de la destrucción
Como desde siempre
Tú eres una bomba
Tú hierves
Tú brotas agua
Y respiras fuego
Y derramas néctar
De entre tus costuras
Y puedes malabarear palabras
Airosamente
Con el fluir de la marea

Tú eres especial
Pero eres como todos los demás:
No del todo tú
