A small Plot of Land


I left the country
the Flat
the Boredom
of the Pampa

Finding a small Plot of Land
in the Heart of the City
Metropolitan distinto al campo vacío
El alivio
de un pañuelo de Tierra
en el Corazón
Porteño.

My neighbours are of
The Best.
Her mother was worried:
"Evíta Perón," she used to repeat
"Te va a traer más penas
que placer..."
"Ay, Mámita... vas a ver, vas a ver..."
Now it's here she's laid
To rest.
