CHEMA EN CHICAGO

"Dulce paralluvias eléctrico, abrázame
en la húmeda noche eterna..."

Timetravel is forbidden.
But kids
do it anyway.

Lights on all night


On lunar plains
no sound, no movement
but the lens of the probe

Asteroids collide
without a sound...
We maneuver between fragments.

The stars look lovely
through
these borrowed eyes.

Through starry tapestries we flee
sleeping fitfully
chasing photons, we dream
while Earth dies.

Digging up an ancient city,
finding the print
of a tennis shoe.
