Back to the States

Back to the States,
center of the world end game.

What part of a thousand prophesies
don´t you understand?

A woman in the street
wearing a baby on her chest.

A dog eating trash from a drain.

The most beautiful woman in Tepoztlan
smoking a cigarette.

It takes more words
to say things in Spanish.
It takes longer
for everything in Spanish.
Sometimes things don´t
happen at all.

I smoke a cigarette and drink
a cervesa, waiting for
my appointment with what´s next.

The most beautiful girl in Tepoztlan
smiles at the bored Akido instructor
from Switzerland.

I wonder if the plane
will go down this time?

Would you believe me then?
