pure uprising

by Roberto Lavidez

the unseen

unspeakable

unthinkable

unavailable

to the

conscious mind

fever turned

to delirium

transported

from the

cultivated society

to utter loneliness

pregnant with

tensions of

unborn future

encroached upon

by the process

of decay

destabilizing

the social fabric

hardened over

centuries

shrinking

inexorably

into nothingness

a morass of

banal infantilism

embedded in a

contradiction

of relations

a pure uprising

break with
all continuity

through which

everything 

in history

naturally unfolds

destroying 

possibility of

a real dialogue

for life’s vicious

theatre at the

level of hyperbolic

exaggeration

irreversible

turning point

for emotional

homelessness

and tormented

waywardness

nothing lies

beyond an

apparent burst

of freedom

subjugated

to the universality

of the law but

a voluntary exile

to orchards and 

fields of grapes

its atmosphere

of forboding

in sunny climates

its acquiescence 

as a dangerous

entrancement

by a land full

of people
