My grandmother told me that God had created the world but that it existed


God existed was not a He or a She
was no way represent or
although I met him. Then

prepared tea and sighed

and I offered her a gentle caress


always remember with love unusually real.

She went to church more for my
by her grandfather.
was important to my grandfather
since childhood he was fond of church and baseball


until he died loving my grandmother died
died loving hometown
that lost in the Sierra de Durango
which always spoke
while I imagined
stories where horse farms and sombrerudos
made his own for the sake of tasty fictions.

But he said that he died.
"your grandfather died," he told a
September morning before heading to school.
was the beginning of the nineties when there was so little

to meet Kurt Cobain:
............................ ...................... not live those stories
.......................................... ........ As mountain
............................................. ..... So perfect
............................................. ..... trade them for distortions
........................................... ....... holy holy well.


My grandmother did not die despite

more than memory and more than energy.
life forms does not imply much less explanation

but she was sure her eyes
expressed in a loving way all

who is known at home
ever ever ever.
