La alegría llega
cuando deja
de haber guerra.
Las detecto cada vez
con más rapidez y precisión.
A las arpías, ni cabida.

"La alegría llega en diferido"
me dijo una amiga en la adolescencia.
Me repitió la frase, la recordó
en nuestros treintilargos
después de mucho tiempo sin vernos.
Me resultó una sorpresa que se acuerde
y yo también. Eso, pensé, es tener
buena memoria.
Fortune, love, health, good work
Nature, cosmos, bliss, experience
Patience, abundance, acceptance.
May the force be with you
And may your dreams come true.
“All of my work is directed against those who are bent, through stupidity or design, on blowing up the planet or rendering it uninhabitable,” said William S. Burroughs in his Art of Fiction interview, which appears in issue no. 35 of the Review. “You know, they ask me if I were on a desert island and knew nobody would ever see what I wrote, would I go on writing. My answer is most emphatically yes. I would go on writing for company. Because I’m creating an imaginary—it’s always imaginary—world in which I would like to live.”
William Burroughs
Las formas de cada día
pueden ser novedades.
La mirada, agudizada
por el tacto, floreciente.
