Del silencio

Mientras el cuerpo nos protege
del desastre

y un turbión hace cauce en nuestras venas
y se nos cubren los ojos de raíces agrias

mi alma sabe que allá del otro lado
en la esquina o tienda o consultorio
también tú te sufres en la oscuridad
con los brazos abiertos
para recibirme.

Rogelio Guedea

Fragmentos de "El Libro de los Márgenes II"

"El libro --había anotado-- no se abre de izquierda a derecha, ni de derecha a izquierda, sino de arriba abajo: una página en el cielo, una página en el polvo."

"No hay palabra que no surja del silencio. Y cuanto más pesado sea ese silencio, más grave será esa palabra."

Edmond Jabés

Documental Marwencol - ¡Quiero verlo!

Sinopsis:
"Marwencol is a real place, even if it exists mostly in the imagination of Mark Hogancamp. The fictional Belgian World War II town was born after the artist nearly died 10 years ago, beaten by five men who attacked the Kingston, N.Y., resident at a local bar. When he awoke from a coma nine days later, he recalled, "all the connections were broken." A talented illustrator who also was, in his words, "a half-gallon a day drunk," Mr. Hogancamp lost his drawing skills, much of his memory and his thirst for booze. But then he picked up an old Pentax K-1000 camera, loaded it with 35mm film he could buy at a store two blocks from his home, and started building his own little world, using scrap wood left behind at a construction site."

This time around our factory is a job site, a construction site peopled by thousands of Southeast Asian laborers, a neo-Fordist architectural production site that manufactures skyscrapers like so many cars.

Mensaje

Con el agua hasta el cuello
de tu botella
Bebo de ti
pensamientos
que arden
cuando atraviesan la garganta,
como ciertas palabras
que luego se asientan tibias
en el corazón.

A mí me han inventado.
Madre, a mí me inventaron, tú no tienes la culpa.
Deja ya de llorar que no es de ti la falta,
sino de Aquél que me hizo sin pedirte permiso.
