"Tots es motors" - Antònia Font

"All of the Motors"

I still don't believe it
and already I am becoming, once again,
a satellite that circles in a straight line.

You've made yourself disappear
and I have lost the curve
and the anesthesia, and I have cried.

I need a centre of gravity,
I need an atlas of spirals
That leads me to know and to close
an audio library of headphones.

And may all of the motors of impossible aviators sound,
may they lead you to confirm
that your dreams are African.

We loved each other,
we mutually destroyed each other's lives,
we finished each another, we kept each other company,
we almost always dedicated our days to one another,
we "sexuized" each other, we "gastronomied" each other.

May the sprinklers turn on,
may they water all the quinces for us,
I don't know if they need to be watered,
because I am more of the sea.

We loved each other,
we mutually destroyed each other's lives,
we finished each another, we kept each other company,
we almost always dedicated our days to one another,
we "sexuized" each other, we "gastronomied" each other.
