Estar fuera del aquí / Guillermo Sucre

To be outside the here

To be outside the here that is within what
is written

writing like a mirror: not the image we project
not the image that reflects us
writing like a mirror without an image
we are not what we write
the image writes for us already at the limit
at the insertion the intersection of two reflexes
both false / true

to write not the order but the rhythm of life
a rhythm we know ignore and recognize
only by the breathing of writing
