the sweat

Post by Sandra »

(from a poem of Miguel Hernández)
Son of the movement
Brother of the sun
Dress of gold and tear of the peasants
You adorn foreheads
And bright like constellations

Those who keep resting
Will not know the salty light
That makes the earth blossom
and turns the bodies transparent


Golden dress of tasty crystals
fill the faces of the workers
caressing the exhausted limbs
the pores like fertile rain bursting

I like this. 8) It has an Inca 'flavour' to it.....'Sweat of the Sun; Tears of the Moon' kind of feel.

Yes it does, Makera. It also feels very earthy, sensuous, primitive; honour the honest labours of man and woman; and "Love Your Body/Love YourSelf" ~ looking at glistening sweat from so many, loving perspectives. I like it very much. The natural glow of lovers could even be added. Very, very nice, Sandra :D .
