A meiga dixo que vin para ocuparme da parte espiritual, e que ía estar sufrindo ata que non o aceptase.
Tamén veu que estou aquí para cultivar as raíces do meu clan. Soe ser así de contradictoria a existencia, escollendo unha alma de vento para o coidado da parte máis estática da árbore.
The witch said that I came to take care of the spiritual part, and that I was going to be suffering until I accepted it.
It also saw that I am here to cultivate the roots of my clan. Existence is so contradictory, choosing a soul of wind for taking care of the most static part in the tree
Abel Abilheira is a pseudonym. I was born in Galicia, Spain, in 1966. I currently live in the UK, almost my first English-speaking country. Before I have also been living in Algeria, France and Luxembourg.
For me, poetry is the language to travel to the interior of the human being.
The last authors I have read in paper books are Sylvia Plath, Xela Arias, Pessoa, Alda Merini and Fiona Benson. July 2022
