«Qué tiempos serán los que vivimos, que hay que defender lo obvio.»

Bertolt Brecht

Ignorancia supina

---

Nadie sabe qué es nada
si no lo muerden
si no lo mueven
si no lo hunden

Nadie sabe qué es agua, tierra, mar
si no lo muerde la sed
si no lo mueven los sismos
si no es hundido en profundos abismos

Nadie sabe qué es luz, camino, libertad
si no ha perseguido su sombra
si no es detenido entre sus pasos
si no ha sentido el peso de cadenas

Nadie sabe qué es nada
si no avanza
si no pasa la página
si no atraviesa puertas

«What times we live in, that we must defend the obvious.»

Bertolt Brecht

Supine Ignorance

---

No one knows what nothing is
if they don't bite him
if they don't move it.
if they don't sink him

No one knows what water, land, sea is
if he's not bitten by thirst
if it is not moved by earthquakes
if they don't sink it into deep abysses

No one knows what light, road, freedom is
if he hasn't chased his shadow
if he is not stopped between his footsteps
if you have not felt the weight of chains

No one knows what nothing is
if it does not advance.
if you don't turn pages.
if it doesn't go through doors
