Farewell, my love.

Pedacitos de un diablo guardián (para la receta final)
“¿Mas no es así, buscando entre la nada banderines de alerta y naufragios crepitantes, como nos resignamos a volvernos salvavidas y volar al rescate de quien no lo ha pedido con palabras pero demanda terminantemente todo el concurso de nuestros cuidados? ¿Y no es verdad, entonces, que al hacerlo y salirnos de nosotros encontramos o armamos la ficción suficiente para asumir que tan obvia cacería espiritual es resultado de la innata nobleza de nuestros sentimientos?” pp.261
“La intensidad de una pasión se mide por la soledad que la precede.” pp. 338
“¿Pero cuándo el amor es propiamente amor? ¿Puede uno amar a quien lo acompañó por una hora? ¿Por dos horas, dos meses, dos años, dos minutos? ¿Se ama a quien se conoce, justamente por eso, o es quizá al revés: conocemos para mejor desconocer, y así poder amar sin el estorbo de la realidad? ¿No es cierto que quienes más se aman son a veces quienes menos se conocen? Ni una sola de estas preguntas se plantea jamás para buscar respuesta verdadera… Se elige ser feliz, besado, afortunado, aun en la certeza de que sucederá lo opuesto, igual que se le dice “que te vaya bien” a un enfermo terminal.” pp. 339
5o fragmento de la versión libérrima y plagiada de El arte de amar por Lupito Esparzi (un libro que no sirve para nada)
Cerrar podrá mi blog...
"Cada vez iré sintiendo menos y recordando más, pero qué es el recuerdo sino el idioma de los sentimientos, un diccionario de caras y días y perfumes que vuelven como los verbos y los adjetivos en el discurso adelantándose solapados a la cosa en sí, al presente puro entristeciéndonos o aleccionándonos vicariamente hasta que el propio ser se vuelve vicario" RAYUELA Cap. 21 (Gracias a Ixchel de la Rosa)
Nunca tuve oportunidad de decírtelo pero -al final- sí que me gustó Rayuela. Algo hay de rayueluesco aquí, algo de maga perdida en ti...

Más cierres, braguetas y candados...
Love hurts, Love scars, Love wounds and mars
Any heart not tough or strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud, it holds a lot of rain
Love hurts, Ooo-oo Love hurts
Nazareth, "Love hurts"
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
Ben E. King, "Stand by me"
Take my hand (take my hand)
Take my whole life too (life too)
For I can't help falling in love with you
Wise men say only fools rush in
With you (with you)
Elvis Priestley, "Can´t Help Falling in Love with You"

Para continuar subiendo el zipper
La música aturdía
y no escuchabas mi canción.
Inútil fue negar
esa distancia entre los dos.
Ahora todo es bruma
y no hay luces que seguir.
Si piensas volver... algún día

Cuando era joven
y vos eras yo
no había nada que temer.
Hoy las páginas se mezclan
es curioso estar aquí.
Pudiste ser mi reina
y cansada de sufrir,
si piensas volver... .algún día
Ninguna estrella nueva enviarán por mí...
si piensas volver...

Para seguir cerrando
Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah they were all yellow,
Thinking a blink of these lashes would make you come
Don’t you worry, don’t get in a state
I don’t believe in true love anyway
Who’s being pessimistic now
I could document this as our first, as our last row
The more you look forlorn, the more to you I warm.
I won’t be seeing you for a long while
Oh I hope it’s not as long as these country miles
I feel lost, I feel lost.
“Country Mile”, Camera Obscura
I can hear her heart beat for a thousand miles
And the heavens open every time she smiles
And when I come to her thats where I belong
Yet Im running to her like a rivers song
She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky
I can't take my eyes off you
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new
There's no hope in you for me
No corner you could squeeze me
But I got all the time for you, love
The tears we cry
Is the laughter keeps us coming back for more
The Space Between
The wicked lies we tell
And hope to keep safe from the pain
I only wanna be your one life stand
(Keep on feeling)
Tell me do you stand by your whole man
There's no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
No song that I could sing
But I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a, shoebox of photographs
With sepiatone loving
Love is the answer,
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Like why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and
Sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing it's always better when we're together
The good old days, the honest man;
The restless heart, the Promised Land
A subtle kiss that no one sees;
A broken wrist and a big trapeze
'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you go, can you read my mind?
Searching west and east
and all points in-between
underneath the lines of thought
you're there and then you're not
Who´s going to care if it smashes down
Or flips you up in the air. Its justa really fast, risky ride at a fair.
On these lovely trips,
The conductor likes your soft brown eyes on his hair.
No need to shut er down, go round and round in the air.
In the air.
Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Still a little hard to say what's going on
Still a little bit of your ghost your witness
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer EACH DAY
Still I can't SAY what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball
“Cannonball”, Damien Rice
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
“Leaving on a Jet Plane”, John Denver

Para ir cerrando
So I did some things wrong. Does it have to be irreversible?
The heart raged, grew melancholy and confused...
...and toward what end? To articulate what nitwit strategy? Procreation?
It told him something. How millions of sperm...
... competed for a single egg, not the other way around.
Men would make love with any number of women...
... even total strangers, while females were selective.
They were catering to the demands of one small egg.
While males had millions of frantic sperms screaming.:
"Let us out, let us out!"
It was like personal ads.
Dozens of requirements followed by, "Non-smokers only. "
Feldman longed to meet an attractive woman with this personality.:
A sense of humour equal to his...
...a love of music equal to his and a love of...
...Bach and balmy climates. In short, himself as a pretty woman.
Pepkin married and led a warm, domestic life.
Placid, but dull. Knapp was a swinger.
He eschewed nuptial ties and bedded different women.:
Nurses, housewives, students, a doctor, a salesgirl....
They all held Knapp between their legs.
Pepkin, from the calm of his fidelity, envied Knapp.
Knapp, lonely beyond belief, envied Pepkin.
What happened after the honeymoon? Did desire grow...
... or did familiarity make partners want other lovers?
Was the notion of ever-deepening romance a myth...
...along with simultaneous orgasm?
The only time Rifkin and his wife experienced one...
... was when they were granted their divorce.
Maybe in the end, the idea was not to expect too much out of life.
So the book was wonderful.
