hoy me baño con las puertas abiertas
Hoy me baño con las puertas
abiertas
sigo la corriente
me remonto techos arriba
alzo brazos me empino
me elevo me vuelo
me sumerjo me deslizo.
Pienso hablo río
murmuro hago muecas
me brinco me salto
me acaricio
me derramo en perfumes
sueño suspiro me ataco
me impulso respiro
inclino la voz doblo
el gesto.
Me alejo me acerco
llego me voy
regreso me pierdo
me busco me encuentro
en el pasillo largo
de todas mis infancias
ésta es mi tercera
mi cuarta mi quinta infancia.

Today I shower with the doors
open
I follow the current
climb the roofs
I lift my arms stand on my tiptoes
I fly up I fly away
I sink I slide.
I think I speak I laugh
I mutter I grin
I jump I stomp
I caress myself
I spill in perfumes
I dream I sigh I attack myself
I urge I breathe
I lower my voice fold
the gesture.
I walk away I get closer
I get here I leave
I come back I get lost
I am looking for me I find myself
in the long corridor
of all my childhoods
this is my third
my fourth my fifth childhood.
