echar a andar la luz::to walk in the light

 Echar a andar la luz

Echar a andar a la luz es abrirse de brazos a lo oscuro,

entrar al corazón de la semilla,
a lo profundo en la sal.
Buscar el calor del huerto,
sus nervaduras de olvido,
volver la mirada al fruto
quebradizo en raíz.
Frágil materia los sueños
que de noche roban la memoria
y todo se vuelve idéntico a lo que no es.


To walk in the light

To walk in the light is to open one's arms to the dark,
enter the heart of the seed,
deep in salt.
Search for the heat of the garden,
its nerve endings of forgetfulness,
turn your glance to the fruit
brittle at the root.
Fragile matter the dreams
that at night steal the memory
and everything becomes identical to what it is not.
