Araneae

"Las antiguas arañas melodiosas, temblaban

maravillosamente sobre las mustias flores.

Sus cristales, heridos por la luna, soñaban

guirnaldas temblorosas de pálidos colores."

(Juan Ramón Jiménez)

Prunus avium

"Her name is Cherry, we've just met
But already she knows me better than you
She understands me after eighteen years
And you still don't see me like you ought to do

Maybe we could talk 'bout things
If you was made of wood and strings
While I love her every sound
I dunno how to turn you down

And you're so thick and my patience thin
So I got me a new best friend
With a pickup that puts you to shame
And Cherry is her name"

(Cherry, Amy Winehouse)

Little grasshopper

"Caine: Master, if I shall love others, how can I be sure that they in return will love me in return? 

Master Po: Do you seek love or barter? 

Caine: But, if I love others and they do not love me, I shall feel great pain. 

Master Po: That is what you risk grasshopper great pain, or great joy."

(Kung Fu)

Alfa

"Sentadita en su máquina de coser

cose y cose, y no se cansa

parece que quisiera pretender

zurcir sus anhelos y esperanzas…

 

Entre telas, encajes e hilos

y una aguja que entra y sale

va transcurriendo su tiempo tranquilo

mientras olvida penas y pesares".

(Alejandro José Díaz Valero, Tejiendo versos)

Siluetas

"Life consists of rare, isolated moments of the greatest significance, and of innumerably many intervals, during which at best the silhouettes of those moments hover about us. Love, springtime, every beautiful melody, mountains, the moon, the sea – all these speak completely to the heart but once, if in fact they ever do get a chance to speak completely. For many men do not have those moments at all, and are themselves intervals and intermissions in the symphony of real life."

(Friedrich Nietzsche, Human, All Too Human)

Ser un maúro, estar crúo

En Cáñar da lo mismo ser un maúro que estar crúo.
