270. Beds over which the crimson blood of ages spills.

Fri Apr 3, 2015, 08:46 PM

Apr 2015

Fifteen bodies that want to live here.
Thirty eyes seeking quietness.
Bald heads that gape from out of the prison.
The holiness of the suffering, which is none of my business...

Food is such a luxury here.
A long, long night and a brief day.
But anyway, I don’t want to leave
The lighted rooms and the burning cheeks.
Nurses who leave behind them only a shadow...

I’d like to stay here, a small patient...
Then I’d like to live
And go back home again
