If I Could

If I could if they let me. truly I say to you! I would expel the rifle that inhabits my unconscious, would deflate all tricks, unused would deflect everything impossible to savor me in full consciousness... I would abandon the spiritual void to live naked and full for love...!

Buenos dias Alkas. OH if YOU could. IF I could. BUT YOU WILL Alkas and I WILL. You & I WANT & NEED to SO WE shall. I really love the line, "I would expel the rifle..."!!! WHAT a GREAT image that this creates in my mind. FANTASTICO Alkas. Muchas gracias...

Si Alkas... I completely agree. I think I told you that I am in Medellin, Colombia right NOW. This Sunday are the Presidental Elections. There IS a lot of hope for CHANGE. For me THESE elections don't mean the same thing as they do to most Colombian people...

yes, of course we want to and we can... when I say if I could, if they would let me, that is why the reigning ideology of the countries in which we live uses all weapons to prevent our arbitrariness.... especially here... we live a terrible time with denialism taking over institutions... without criticizing the land of others, but we live surrounded by idiots who do everything for profit and delay people's mental and spiritual progress... they are the ones I'm referring to... Of course we can with a lot of struggle to live our philosophies...Poetry is then one of the ways to vent tensions...Thank you, salute alkas
