Alexandro Johns Poems

Caminé en un desierto para olvidar sus pasos
Bajo un sol que hizo arder hasta mi sombra
Me hablaron las arenas como a todos los locos
Que han dejado de amar y a los que nadie nombra.
...

Her face is a dying star in the distance.
She blinks when I feel her again
As the alcohol of a lost feast that still sounds
Inside the dream where she lives.
...

The king shot elephants,
he shamed forever his grandchildren
and now like an old pachyderm
he limps close to the Stygian lagoon.
...

They are floating on the beach
such as dead anemones,
the two Syrian children
returned to the silence.
...

Como los enamorados
de hoy
que dejan candados
en los puentes,
...

It is a dark river flowing to the sea
that becomes part of the history again:
The walls of the fortress
are without lookouts nor loyal soldiers.
...

We must forgive God
for the pain in the world,
we know the enigma in beauty
but we are tired of killing by its name
...

Así como las ranas suplicaban a Zeus un rey,
dos lobos que aúllan bajo la luna
piden el soplo terminal de los átomos
que pueden arrasar toda la tierra.
...

The wheat
after the cut of bread,
the beheaded singing of birds
inside the cage of my blood,
...

The man I am, nobody can see.
A forest of faces chases me
to make up the tale of my life.
I've always lived
...

I have known shadows and no individuals,
liabilities animals of imaginary life,
with their idiot suits and knots of neurons
attached like birds on a virtual tree.
...

La bondad y el horror estuvieron en mí;
pude imitar la santidad de los elefantes,
la cordura existencial de los gatos
y la cándida alegria de un delfín,
...

I'm over reading the silent
that covers this 2020's reality:
The crowned pest has arrived,
it came to dispute our illusory kingdom.
...

When my uncle fell into poverty
he sold his books
and at the closing lids of his tale
he got lighten the soul
...

We have been abandoned by gods
or they are inside us for our destruction?
We stop crying the innocent deaths:
Who mourns for my indians?
...

16.

1.-

Autumn wind-
In the darkness of forest
...

17.

I hear the falling rain
and I fell as if the night
it flooding me
with all sorrows of unknown people,
...

Mi tío llegó a la muerte
con un ruido de botellas quebradas
sobre la frágil proa de su alma,
así por fin se liberó su cuerpo
...

Next to my friend, the Autumn,
I walk on the rust of time
that piles up as fallen leaves on the footpath,
and I leave behind
...

Es un río oscuro hacia el mismo mar
que vuelve a ser parte de la historia:
los muros de la fortaleza
están sin vigías ni soldados leales,
...

The Best Poem Of Alexandro Johns

Soneto En El Desierto

Caminé en un desierto para olvidar sus pasos
Bajo un sol que hizo arder hasta mi sombra
Me hablaron las arenas como a todos los locos
Que han dejado de amar y a los que nadie nombra.

A lo lejos destellos burlaron mis sentidos
Como activos resabios de mis lechos con ella
Los motivos no cuentan pero allí la olvidé
En medio de la nada no hay reencuentros.

El viento del desierto silbaba en los escombros
De la vida perdida porque ya no la amaba
Y dejé que borrara mi alma de sus sueños.

Nadie aguarda al que retorna con las manos vacías
Quién escucha odiseas de derrumbes comunes?
Del cruce del desierto se vuelve sin amor.
