BLACKBOARD
The guitar scales expressed it better
I say it is only seafood
With lime and salsa
Onions and cilantro
Tortillas and spices
The table is set
And the rearview mirror
Serves a different dessert
A small taste of madness
The green lights
Guide the way like runways
Like studio audiences
Graciously laughing
They all travel towards you

WATER & BLOOD
A sea of algae
An ocean
Producing for
The markets of suspicion
Water is in a glass
Water in your body
Water in my heart
Water dancing
In the clearness
Of the crystal
Water with salt
Closing the openings
Gapes breathing
Gapes expiring

FLEX
High tide in the morning
Sand & water
Like newlyweds
A pacific seal
Decorates the event
With ornamental punctures
On it body
The dog
Lays in the boardwalk
Her owner
Pleading with it
Begging it to get up
To continue the march
We the walkers
Watch the spectacle

EARTHQUAKE
Yesterday as I walked
The earth shook
The dust under my feet
Vibrated in love
With the comets
That were falling
Entering the caves
Of the planet
Signaling the path
Of my journey
Preparing the landing
Of messages
That were floating outside
The international Space Station

MESSAGE
My fingertips manipulated the messages
That would eventually show you the light
That would reflect in your eyes
That would make you aware
My steps lifted the dust for your path
Away from your direction
Away from your discretion
I made it clear
That you don’t need telescopes to see
The metallic sound was just protection
Insulation from lighting bolts
A sense of security
An illusion of defense
The police cruiser on the corner
Glittered with curious apprehension
I stepped on the gas pedal
As if my huarache sandal
Was pressing on your face
The rearview mirror
Speaks of the past as triumph
As miles per hour
In your escape
As the metric fall
Of your garrulity
I met my advisor on the road
While thinking of green oil
I bought him a drink
And stated my case for love

DRIVE HOME
The road at night
Is like an unforgettable photograph
Moving with the reflection of lights
The music in the car
Makes for perfect discoveries
The creation of new memories
And the newness of your labyrinth
I could be behind the wheel
On this motorized desire
And be happy in darkness
With the movement of your legs
With the free intentions of survival
With the remembrance of your taste
With the side effects of your embrace
