My Friend Ramirez




Tap Tap Tap
Tap Tap Tap
Dancing on the floor
Whirling like tomorrow – no more
My dear Ramirez

Your brown arms
Stretched to the end of the earth
The glistening sweat
Like pearls - on your forehead
My Dear Ramirez

Tap Tap Tap
Quickening those lean legs
Tap Tap Tap
Jumping that barbed fence
My Dear Ramirez

Tat Tat Tat
You hear the sound
Tat Tat Tat
You slide in the muddy river
My dear Ramirez,
My beautiful Ramirez
Those strong legs
Those beautiful arms
Those big eyes
Those long eyelashes
Those pearl like sweat

Your lover
Your friends
Your poor mother
And your brother
My dear Ramirez
Sleep well
In that muddy river
Away from that barbed wire
Far away from those Nazi boots
Far away from those green paper
Far away from those jutting
sky scraper(s)

My Ramirez, you Marcos and Andres
Deep in the muddy river
Listless stars and suffocating sky
Ceaseless desert and stifling mountains
Stares at you mute in horror

Blood, sweat, tears
Entangled -thin stream
Makes way across your face
Over those long eylashes
Sits in the corner of your closed mouth

My dear Ramirez
Sleep well deep in that river.

Dear Namita:

Do you appreciate it if I write my comments in 'reply' ? I
personally hoped this section to be nice,clean and tidy, and if we
have to post our comment,we better post it in discussion!
