BEAUTY / BELLEZA / 美しさ（びしさ）
sorenbarrett said:
A beautiful poem of memories those pastels of the past and paint the present in brilliant colors. A wonderful poem my friend. I was caught by the difference in format between the languages that leaves the Spanish in shorter lines. There is a different feel from this somehow.

Sparrow that flies /Gorrión que vuela
sorenbarrett said:
Although this can be taken literally, I believe it is a metaphor. A metaphor for those people who can live amongst others even in crowded or dirty situations and still express joy. Very nicely written.

IN THE CITY / EN LA CIUDAD

Once again Bustillos you have captured a mood, a view, a subculture of workers in the urban area. It is cold amidst so many bodies and lonely in the midst of thousands. A lovely write that I particularly loved in its Spanish form. A fave my friend

BETWEEN CORDS / ENTRE CORDELES
sorenbarrett said:
Bustillos I prefer that first English translation in that it has more raw power and feeling to it. The second seems more polished but to me in poetry polish is not always the best. The Spanish version is my favorite of all. It packs a punch and has the power of word sound. Loved them all. Very nicely done

BETWEEN CORDS / ENTRE CORDELES
Paul Bell said:
Great title, great poem.
The cords of life when you\'re young seem to go on forever.
Then in later life the cords get tighter and the constraints harder.
Modern life they tell you, everything\'s at your convenience, the robot says.
Maybe too convenient as the rope gets tighter every day.
