IN THE OPEN

This comedy has gone too far.

Let’s put everything in the open:

I not only foresee your disdain

I also provoke it.

In the wild joy of my self-humiliation

I skillfully invite the footsteps that trample me

and from my self-inflicted wounds or the ones

you inflict on me, which I keep open with tooth

and nail, I draw an irreversible, toxic opium

that leads me to my death but doesn’t kill me.

It only cripples and

exhausts me.
