Notes on a scandal

September 15, 2008

Conference Blues

 

In this huge gathering

Of colleagues and friends

I wondered if our paths

Would cross and ricochet

Like a bullet skidding

Across a metallic surface.

 

People we both know

Came up for conversations

Some I acknowledged

For afar with a friendly wave

As I pondered what to do

Should I come across you.

 

Mercifully, in the throng

Of colleagues and friends

The meeting I feared

Remained inside my head

And my knotted innards

Soon untangled themselves.

 

Still, a small part of me

Silently wished to see you,

If only to check if the sight

Of you will exert its old effect

On me, though I know that

It doesn’t really matter now.

 

phnom penh, 2008

Dejame que te hable tambien con tu silencio / claro como una lampara, simple como un anillo. / Eres como la noche, callada y constelada. / Tu silencio es de estrella, tan lejano y sencillo. -- Pablo Neruda, 'I Like For You To Be Still'
