The reproach of the steps/Manuel Felipe Álvarez-Galeano Medellín, Colombia

To their footsteps sing the banished

so the chances sleep

and our houses as if they have memory

chase us with their thirsty doors

and the ropes fastened to the crossbeam

but we know to renounce when smiles a path

we march with two odd socks for two left feet

it is so happy the exile when yells the conscience

and the stars with their grey glasses shred us

to teach us to flee

to flee?

it is even allowed to flee when even our names harass us?

it is even allowed to flee when we carry the vice of having born?

even of we call us Night and Longing

although the corpses we were play hopscotch in the ears

the go back always seduces us to die again

or to born in the boundary traced by a tear
