Jarabe de Palo Jarabe de Palo

You don't learn from books

You don't learn from books
From the stories they contain
From what is read between the lines
From their silent words.

You don't learn from books
About half-truths
From written thoughts
About ideas someone had, but

There are certain things
That are never learned
That suddenly appear
Without knowing why
There are certain things
That are not in books
Suddenly appear
But you have to know

You learn from books
From black and white pages
From ink on paper
From well-ordered words

I thought about writing a book
About my version of things
That I saw written in a book
That another blind person wrote

You don't have to be a wise person
To write a book
