Los AndesA Poem by LeoA poem about Santiago, Chile, where I live.Los Andes
the icy andes breathes down our neck here in the city of sorrow, the city of joy
la cordillera tan lejos, tan cerca, masiva, pasiva, un rey absoluto con una corona de hielo
we scurry hither and thither like disturbed ants accomplishing very little, if anything
mientras el rey, los andes, da golpecitos en las espaldas de los santiaguinos, sus niños, para que se porten bien
but the people don´t listen, they turn up their collars and hurry about their dying business © 2012 Leo |
