Recuérdame para no perderme / Luis Alberto Crespo

Remember me so I don’t get lost
Don’t get impatient in the brightness

Leave me on the shore
the thing nailed

Enlighten me with what brings you down

Lay me out over myself
only over myself

Place yourself as abyss

Abandon me
Let me go




{ Luis Alberto Crespo, Resolana, Caracas: Monte Ávila Editores, 1980 }

Cuídame la desolación / Luis Alberto Crespo

Take care of my desolation
That I might listen to the family again
in the wire

And what’s my name
when I’m in black
and try to calm a rabbit’s heart

In the drizzle
wet
with that sad gold on my clothes

Maltrecho / Luis Alberto Crespo

Battered
by what I desire

What I would see was ending
in the mountain range

Still facing the extended
would remove the cross

The heat making me distant
the last one

I would wake up
with things on me

Horrible
with midday inside

Lo que creías fijo / Luis Alberto Crespo

What you thought was fixed
in your eyes doesn’t return

Hours and hours of clouds

Death
was drifting watching them
on the street

Time passes continues
over you who are blind
without knowing it

Entro / Luis Alberto Crespo

I enter
through the narrowest door

I speak to you
like that confinement

In the portrait that we are
in the middle of the hall

Where thorns
already ached from before

I know our headless names

I look for you with my finger
in the patio

And feel that eternity

Adelgazo de ir lejos / Luis Alberto Crespo

I grow thin from going far
Saying gone words

With no shadow to hear you

Beating the gate with the crown
Tilting my whole body in disgrace

La pared enseñaba su hendidura / Luis Alberto Crespo

The wall was showing its crack
in us

Where we were
no more water what to say

That white mouth
when we spoke of horses

Leaning on nothing
like in portraits
