READING

‘Ten marginal Cuban poets’

I see that nine of them

were in favor of the revolution

until they  became

anti-revolutionaries

and became great poets

with very little freedom

some exiled

others destroyed

If I start a revolution

I will learn from Castro

and kill all

and I mean all

those which are in my favor

and  end  the revolution

and all the fucking

revolutionaries

that one day become

anti-revolutionary

and then

a poet like me

in a chilly day

in Jerusalem

in a rotten and Democratic office

between one accounting work and another

will be able to read some poets

who wrote good poems

in wheelchairs in jails

in exile with their own blood

and to enjoy such

good poetry.

Long live the revolution

the anti-revolution

Castro and ContraCastro!
