Anahuak

Wandering off course, feeling my way
No sun, no faith!
Mountains will fall on lifeless towns
In a dark revenge
Fish and birds with skin of oil
Your flesh and their flesh is cancer

Always!
Forgetting the sky
Always!
Without looking up
Always!
Without looking inside
Night!
Your murky face
Night!
Without hearing prayers
Night!

Just black laments
In prolonged dreams
In the midst of a war
Destroying armor
That is your skin
Nature in heat
With one lip it kisses you

The one who drags their anguish
The one who doesn’t believe
Quetzals fly in flames
You won’t see them return
Twisting the air in their wake
From their ashes, you will breathe

Choosing to live here
Forgetting, what for?
And behind
A volcano
That spews human remains
A sun will rise
And others too
That will come back to destroy it all
Anáhuac
