BACCHANAL AT THE CARNIVAL
Modern revelries.
Sensual delight,
a feast unbound,
without restraint.
Abandonment,
Bacchus unleashed,
a bacchanal of revelers,
oysters and scallops,
eating, devouring,
within the dance of the crowd.
A seafood feast to savor,
among vapors,
among mirrors and silver trays.
Tangled, mingled, excessive,
within the shadows,
within the taste of the immeasurable.
Within the fruit salad of darkness,
fallen into the craving for oysters,
goose barnacles, fried eggs,
between food and desire,
everything is possible, it is celebration,
it is the bacchanal of gluttony,
where the skin perspires.
Among fragrances,
among dark lights,
among whispering voices,
among glasses that clink.
Among bodies that sway,
in the unstoppable banquet of wine,
where our senses drift away.
Where instinct reigns,
it is the festival of excess,
where coats are left behind,
where appetite is dressed,
where we tremble,
together.
Without regrets,
where delight knows no end,
in the extravagance of insatiable hearts,
where everything is prepared to be enjoyed without measure,
in that other world where the night merges with thirsty souls.
Where everything is arranged for celebration,
where eating becomes wonder,
in the call of the unconscious,
where old rules fall silent.
Where the serpents hiss,
among tempting fruits,
within the forbidden garden,
where we become part of the feast.
Ssssssssss...
Hush, sssssssss,
always the same temptations,
the flesh is fragile,
come to the feast and be carried away,
open your mind,
leave your burdens behind,
everything fades away,
enjoy...
sssss
sss
sssssssss
sssssss
It is the climax
of long-awaited delight,
where we are consumed
by our own desires,
where we become
both guests and hosts.
Where?
ssssssssssss

BACANAL
Orgías de sombras.
Sensual placer,
sin frenos,
sin medida.
Desenfreno,
Baco liberado,
bacanal de borrachos,
ostras y zamburiñas,
comiendo, devorando,
en la danza de las multitudes.
Mariscada interminable,
entre vapores,
entre espejos y bandejas.
Revueltos, mezclados, desmesurados,
entre las tinieblas,
entre el sabor de lo inabarcable.
Entre la macedonia de la obscuridad,
caídos en el consumo de las ostras,
percebes, gula, huevos fritos,
entre la comida y el deseo,
todo es posible, es fiesta,
es la bacanal de la gula,
donde la piel suda.
Entre aromas,
entre la luz negra,
entre murmullos,
entre copas que chocan.
Entre cuerpos que vibran,
en el bacanal del vino imparable,
donde se nos pierden los sentidos.
Donde los impulsos mandan,
es la fiesta del desenfreno,
donde dejar los abrigos,
donde vestir la gula,
donde vibrar,
juntos.
Sin remordimientos,
donde el placer parece infinito,
en la extravagancia de los corazones insaciables,
donde todo está dispuesto para disfrutarse sin medida,
en el otro mundo donde la noche se confunde con las almas sedientas.
Donde todo está dispuesto para la celebración,
donde comer es un milagro,
en el mandato de lo inconsciente,
donde se derrumban las viejas normas.
Donde silban las serpientes,
entre frutos apetitosos,
en el jardín prohibido,
donde formar parte del festín.
Ssssssssss...
Calla, sssssssss,
siempre las mismas tentaciones,
la carne es débil y apetecible,
ven a la fiesta,
abre tu mente,
deja tu carga,
todo queda atrás,
disfruta...
sssss
sss
sssssssss
sssssss
Es el clímax,
del placer deseado,
donde nos consumen
nuestros propios deseos,
donde ser consumidos,
donde ser consumidores,
¿dónde?
ssssssssssss
ssssssssssssssss

A delightful surrealist reverie on the menu !
In times like these, sometimes it's good to party without worrying about what comes next—as they say, nobody can take the good times away from us.
Good heavens, Carlos! LOL! I think I need a shower after this one, and possibly a confession! What a deliciously wicked carnival you've invited us to! 🌹🖤🐦⬛
It's an over-the-top party where reality far exceeds anything you could imagine.

Enjoy it before it’s too late. Enjoy all that you can... make it all happen.
Indulge in the fleshly pleasures of a world of pastries,
fruit, and gluttony while you still can,
for the hunger will soon arrive.
