Luis Gil de la Puente Poems

Beautiful women
never get
to see
the world
...

Desconozco
a dónde llevan
los caminos
del deseo.
...

The first day you woke me up,
did you open the door
or did I leave it open?
...

Failure safe,
a hiding place,
useless beauty
in his eyes.
...

Let´s fly kites.

I´ve been working on one
And I can feel it strong
...

That was the end
of the eleventh month,
wild geese
going south.
...

I never knew I would be a long distance runner.

I´ve lost the drive to win
and my voice has become sweet.
...

Night after night,
their strength and arrogance grow,
the horror closing the horizon,
the true nature of the sword.
...

At first I didn´t realize your hair was dyed
I hadn´t noticed your long legs, your longer heels,
and your poor taste in choosing the tightest jeans.
...
