compendium I

I dreamed the beginnings of a castle

the sound of old fortifications

a structure neither suspended or living

and with such great tales of yesterday

inscribed in a fulcrum passed the years.


The house , the old mansion diverted

exchanging forms of simplicity and grandeur

and in its walls of stone curtly written

the name of ten thousand maidens

whose different fathers still quarreled

while just the one mother sang to them.


They made themselves the cause of memory in my laughter

and witnesses of a trial eternal

where time and synchronicity

as rivals made their plaudits

and became friends

sad inmates of their love mutual.
