Voyage
& I lay in my bunk and slept for so long,
I forgot about the ocean,
Which all the time was going by, right there, outside my cabin window.
And the sides of the ship were green as money,
And th and the water made a sound like memory when we sailed.

James. James Oscco Anamaría, repito tu nombre varias veces. Como una oración lo repito al comenzar mi jornada y le digo a Dios, a los amigos y a mi mismo, quizá para poder empezar a creerlo, que nunca jamás estuviste tan vivo.antonio pérez morte

What certain poets of trauma intuit is that their old self cannot survive the suffering it has experienced without succumbing. Thus necessity permits and compels imagination to create a new self, a self strong enough or different enough to move through and beyond the trauma and its aftermath.Gregory Orr, quoted by Sam Hamill at Poets Against War

"Money complicates everything. I've got a genuine belief that art is a more powerful currency than money - that's the romantic feeling that an artist has. But you start to have this sneaking feeling that money is more powerful. They constantly collide, these notions. I even toyed with the idea that having too much money was the same as having not enough."Damien Hirst, the world's most famous living artist, Observer UK 19.Feb.06
