En el Mississippi
“He wandered far from the accustomed haunts of boys, and sought desolate places that were in harmony with his spirit. A log raft in the river invited him, and he seated himself on its outer edge and contemplated the dreary vastness of the stream, wishing, the while, that he could only be drowned, all at once and unconsciously, without undergoing the uncomfortable routine devised by nature....

Héroes - Ray Loriga
“… Me contó una historia de un elefante al que todos los cazadores disparaban. Era un elefante grande como una montaña y todos los cazadores pequeños como una bala de fogueo creían que podrían con él. Disparaban sus rifles y el elefante no caía. Estaba bien jodido, pero no caía. Según me contó, el elefante aguantó durante años aquella historia. Tíos incapaces de tumbarle disparándole a...

1. Fuimos con mi jefe a ver “Crazy”. La película me hace recordar a David Bowie, así que al llegar a casa me pongo a escuchar a Bowie y leer algo de Cormack McCarthy. Era mi despeje después de no poder ver, por puro cansancio, la película “All the pretty horses” - basada en un libro con igual nombre de McCarthy - que me había recomendado Lobo. 2. Llegué a Cormack McCarthy...
Osip Mandelstam - Tristia
Estudié la ciencia de la despedida en las calvas quejas de la noche. Rumian los bueyes y la espera se alarga, la última hora de las vigilias de la ciudad. Sigo el rito de esta noche del gallo, cuando, tras llevar una penosa carga, los ojos llorosos a lo lejos miraron, y lágrimas de mujer se mezclaron con el canto de las musas. ¿Quién puede saber al oír la palabra “despedida” qué...

Iron Mike-Bukowski
we talk about this film:
Cagney fed this broad
grapefruit
faster than she could
eat it and
then she
loved him.
“that won’t always
work,” I told Iron
Mike.
he grinned and said,
“yeh.”
then he reached down
and touched his belt.
32 female scalps
dangled there.
“me and my big Jewish
cock,” he said.
then he raised...

Lullaby-Louise Glück
Time to rest now; you have had enough excitement for the time being.
Twilight, then early evening. Fireflies in the room, flickering here and there, here and there, and summer’s deep sweetness filling the open window.
Don’t think of these things anymore. Listen to my breathing, your own breathing like the fireflies, each small breath a flare in which the world appears.
I’ve...
Bukowski - one for the shoeshine man
The balance is preserved by the snails climbing the Santa Monica cliffs; the luck is in walking down Western Avenue and having the girls in a massage parlor holler at you, “Hello Sweetie!” the miracle is having 5 women in love with you at the age of 55, and the goodness is that you are only able to love one of them. the gift is having a daughter more gentle than you are, whose laughter is...
