Poems, in Spanish

I think I'll keep working on the second one, "El caballero callado," but I'm pleased with the simple relationship between desire, banknotes, and a body in the first. For those in need of an inadequate translation, try this.

A la cajera, Sara Fomby

Por favor
Dame los pesos míos
Dame los besos tuyos

Tu apellido...
!Qué raro!

Por favor
Dame mi dinero
Dame tu cuerpo



El caballero callado

Te llamas Thomas
Todo lo que eres es caballero
Caballero callado
Mente aguda
Cara de acne

Hablas con las chicas que te respetan, y, quizás, te admiran también
Pero, me temo que a ti no te den sus amores

Lo siento mucho, Thomas

Caballero callado
Mente aguda
Cara de acne

Random complaint of the week

Why are Pitchfork's search functions so terrible? Can someone stop trying to be so smart over there and start making the site a bit more navigable, please? And why do I still check out Pitchfork nearly every single day? Maybe that's the real question, my friends!

questions and observations involving sierra mist, etc.

- who in the world would ever claim sierra mist to be their favorite pop?

- over the recent holiday season, while in an airport, i overhead an older, filipino-american doctor talking to a couple of american businessman about his granddaughter. "she has such an amazing outgoing personality," he said, "so friendly, always smiling, and she can talk to just about anyone about anything, too! oh, what a personality she has! really, it's like that of a hooker!"
