Escandalizan al ciudadano a pie,
a sus más allegados,
a sus colegas,
a mí y a los míos.
Intimidan,
amenazan,
rugen.
Dicen ser reyes de su perímetro.
Fuertes,
machos,
carnívoros.
Exhiben valentía.
No tienen miedo...
No son lobos bajo piel de cordero,
ni tiburones que nadan en aguas tranquilas,
son gatitos
y buscan compasión.
Jordi Boldú. Arguineguín, 23 de septiembre de 2011.
For my Indian followers:
ResponderEliminarKITTENS IN LION´S SKIN
They shock the citizens on foot,
their closest relatives,
their colleagues,
me and my people.
They intimidate,
threaten,
roar.
They claim to be kings of their homes.
They are strong,
males,
they eat flesh.
They exhibit courage.
They are not afraid ...
They are not wolves in sheep's skin,
neither sharks swimming in calm water.
But they are kittens
and they claim for sympathy.
