Mario Gonzalez Poems

Shadows come to dust
As the last men fall
As the final clouds fade away
And the shallow oceans evaporate.
...

In the land where sand and water meet
And heaven and earth collide,
The stars align side by side,
And a god takes his seat.
...

Blue.

The surface image
...

The smoldering embers of a tree
Once shinning the life of men
Remind the story of the sad illusion
That was to be the decline of truth.
...

I see myself all flesh and bone,
And to this light where I was born
I thrust a question cold as stone.
...

La luz sonriente
Que abre la noche
Extiende sus brazos
Asta el paraiso del hombre
...

When winter surpasses fall

And spring stays silent,
...
