Mariela Cordero,Venezuela


Interruption of the Light

Interruption of the Light
When the lights went out
Our hearts were inhabited by fateful fables
the night-once beloved-was baptized
by the sowing of panic
We were close to one another
And blood spread in the penumbra
Like an alluring perfume.
Many navigated by scent
And desired to bathe in a convulsing red river
When the lights returned,hours later
We didnt recognize our faces
Splashed with the bestial grins.
Our land was filled with bodies,
                                         mutilated,
We listened to moans of pain,
Saw our hands stained with blame
And it was too late when we discovered
That we,too,were fatally wounded.

Translation by Aaron Devine
