“Sometimes I feel like an eagle in the air.”
(from a song by Pablo Milanés)
Sometimes I feel
like a poor hill
and other times like a mountain
with repeated peaks
sometimes I feel
like a cliff
and other ones like a blue sky
but distant
Sometimes one is
a spring among rocks
and other times a tree
with its last leaves
but today I feel like no more
than a sleepless lagoon
with a dock
now without boats
a green lagoon
motionless and patient
content with its algae
its moss, and its fish
serene in my confidence
trusting that one afternoon
you will approach and look at yourself
look at yourself as you look at me.
— Mario Benedetti, “Love, women and life”
