    An special place dedicated to the Poetry...

    Here it is one very special to me...

    Andrew Marvell
    The Definition of Love...

    My Love is of a birth as rare
    As 'tis for object strange and high
    It was begotten by Despair
    Upon Impossibility.
    Magnanimous Despair alone
    Could show me so divine a thing
    Where feeble Hope could ne'r have flown
    But vainly flapt its tinsel wing.


    And yet I quickly might arrive
    Where my extended soul is fixt
    But Fate does iron wedges drive,
    And always crowds it self betwixt.


    For Fate with jealous eye does see
    Two perfect Loves; nor lets them close:
    Their union would her ruin be,
    And her Tyrannic pow'r depose.


    And therefore her Decrees of Steel
    Us as the distant Poles have plac'd,
    (Though Love's whole World on us doth wheel)
    Not by themselves to be embrac'd.


    Unless the giddy Heaven fall,
    And Earth some new Convulsion tear;
    And, us to join, the World should all
    Be cramp'd into a
    Planisphere.

    As Lines so Loves oblique may well
    Themselves in every Angle greet:
    But ours so truly
    Parallel,
    Though infinite can never meet.


    Therefore the Love which us doth bind
    But Fate so enviously debars,
    Is the Conjunction of the Mind,
    And Opposition of the Stars.

    I like this poem of Walt Whitman...


    Me! O life!


    O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring;
    Of the endless trains of the faithless—of cities fill’d with the foolish;
    Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?)
    Of eyes that vainly crave the light—of the objects mean—of the struggle ever renew’d;
    Of the poor results of all—of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me;
    Of the empty and useless years of the rest—with the rest me intertwined;
    The question, O me! so sad, recurring—What good amid these, O me, O life?

    Answer.
    That you are here—that life exists, and identity;
    That the powerful play goes on, and you will contribute a verse.

    I like cats.... this is not a secret, ja!
    And this is a poem that I read when I was little and it was very funny for me....

    Enjoy it

    From Mr. Eliot...


    The naming of cats

    The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter,
    It isn't just one of your holiday games;
    You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter
    When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.
    First of all, there's the name that the family use daily,
    Such as Peter, Augustus, Alonzo or James,
    Such as Victor or Jonathan, George or Bill Bailey--
    All of them sensible everyday names.
    There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter,
    Some for the gentlemen, some for the dames:
    Such as Plato, Admetus, Electra, Demeter--
    But all of them sensible everyday names.
    But I tell you, a cat needs a name that's particular,
    A name that's peculiar, and more dignified,
    Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular,
    Or spread out his whiskers, or cherish his pride?
    Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum,
    Such as Munkustrap, Quaxo, or Coricopat,
    Such as Bombalurina, or else Jellylorum-
    Names that never belong to more than one cat.
    But above and beyond there's still one name left over,
    And that is the name that you never will guess;
    The name that no human research can discover--
    But THE CAT HIMSELF KNOWS, and will never confess.
    When you notice a cat in profound meditation,
    The reason, I tell you, is always the same:
    His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation
    Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name:
    His ineffable effable
    Effanineffable
    Deep and inscrutable singular Name

    Love this one... marvelous... by Edgar Allan Poe

    Alone

    From childhood's hour I have not been
    As others were; I have not seen
    As others saw; I could not bring
    My passions from a common spring.
    From the same source I have not taken
    My sorrow; I could not awaken
    My heart to joy at the same tone;
    And all I loved, I loved alone.
    Then- in my childhood, in the dawn
    Of a most stormy life- was drawn
    From every depth of good and ill
    The mystery which binds me still:
    From the torrent, or the fountain,
    From the red cliff of the mountain,
    From the sun that round me rolled
    In its autumn tint of gold,
    From the lightning in the sky
    As it passed me flying by,
    From the thunder and the storm,
    And the cloud that took the form
    (When the rest of Heaven was blue)
    Of a demon in my view.

    When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
    And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
    And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
    Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;

    How many loved your moments of glad grace,
    And loved your beauty with love false or true,
    But one man loved the pilgrim Soul in you,
    And loved the sorrows of your changing face;

    And bending down beside the glowing bars,
    Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
    And paced upon the mountains overhead
    And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.

    Ok then, here it is, my poem:

    There're a lot of reasons to fear:
    death, gods and the four hells.
    Ther're thousand sounds to hear
    on the deep darkness of the night.

    I have no commitements with life,
    just reasons to still alive.

    We are not the slaves of light,
    we are not puppets of a god.
    Blood, war. It's my life for you or it's mine?
    We wont redent you from your sins,
    we are the justice of the losts.

    They could have the strongest weapons,
    they could have a sweet pray;
    but buried alive just like deep bones
    we will rice from the sacred fire.

    I have no commitements with love,
    just reasons to reach for lust.

    I'm sorry if I had some mistakes, my English is not as good as my Spanish, of course.

    See ya.
