- I had dream of classifying
- Good and Evil, the same way scientist
- classify butterflies:
- I had dream to pin Good and Evil
- in the dark velvet
- of the glass display case
- Under the white butterfly
- a label that will read The Good.
- under the black butterfly,
- a label that will read The Evil.
- But the white butterfly
- was not the good, neither the black butterfly
- was the evil And between my two butterflies,
- green, golden and infinite all the earth butterflies fly.
- If you love me, love me whole
- If you love me, love me whole
- not by zones of light or shadow
- if you love me, love me black
- and white, and gray and green and blond,
- and mixed
- love me day,
- love me night
- and in the morning with the open window!
- If you love me, dont break me in pieces:
- love me whole Or do not love me at all.
Dos Poemas - YO SOABA EN CLASIFICAR...
- Yo soaba en clasificar
- el Bien y el Mal, como los sabios
- clasifican las mariposas:
- Yo soaba en clavar el Bien y el Mal
- en el obscuro terciopelo
- de una vitrina de cristal...
- Debajo de la mariposa
- blanca, un letrero que dijera: "EL BIEN".
- Debajo de la mariposa
- negra, un letrero que dijera: "EL MAL".
- Pero la mariposa blanca
- no era el bien, ni la mariposa negra
- era el mal... Y entre mis dos mariposas,
- volaban verdes, ureas, infinitas,
- todas las mariposas de la tierra!...
- SI ME QUIERES, QUIREME ENTERA
- Si me quieres, quireme entera,
- no por zonas de luz o sombra...
- Si me quieres, quireme negra
- y blanca. Y gris, y verde, y rubia,
- y morena...
- Quireme da,
- quireme noche...
- Y madrugada en la ventana abierta!
- Si me quieres, no me recortes:
- Quireme toda... O no me quieras!
