Poesía original

where was that                            what were the untended grounds

weak sun massy clouds the barest pale blue

brained with some sense of the feral event the girls turned and looked out of the picture

their realism followed you around the last chance salon back into the frame

this they said was where we wanted to give ourselves over to men’s insistences to follow their instructions exactly and it took us loci to figure out that despite their reputation for sex on the brain you just can’t trust them to leave off trying to forget it and transfer the jurisdictioning everywhere else

Traducción

Where was that place?

What were the neglected areas?

The sun was weak, the clouds were heavy, and the sky was a very light blue. With some understanding of the wild event,

the girls turned and looked out from the picture. Their realistic presence seemed to follow you around.

The last chance salon returned to the scene. This is where we wanted to give ourselves up to men's demands, to follow their instructions exactly, and it took us some time to realize that despite their reputation for being obsessed with sex, you can't trust them to stop trying to forget it and shift the control elsewhere.
