El sabor de la ceguera




Muéstrame el dulce sabor de la ceguera,
lléname la boca con toda esa tierra
que no han sabido masticar los párpados.


Dime que ninguna oscuridad es insípida,
que sabes cómo destilar las sombras
que puedes beberte lo deshabitado
alimentarte de cajones vacios
desayunarte las grietas y los pecados.


Dejar un rastro de tinta en las servilletas
de cuando vienes de degustar los abismos,
y aún te queda un trozo de noche en los labios.


Enséñame a nutrirme de sótano, de rincones,
ven a cocinarme la penumbra y las cunetas
ven y dame el dulce sabor de lo desconocido.





I simply love to illustrate poems, thoughts, songs.. especially when they come from a place that feels so real. Jordi has this special gift, taking us in a profound and intimate journey and in here you'll enter his world of words. Thank you so much for the inspiration and I hope to color more of your poems :)*
