Each one of us carries
his briefcase of hell
attached to his wrist
like a tracking bracelet for inmates
A Spanish train mechanic
who killed eighty people
because he was careless
has a bigger briefcase
then my father teenager
who permanently damaged
the eye of his brother,
my uncle teenager,
through playful mistake,
showing him how a match set alight
can fly
high up in the sky
When I met you
I laid down
my briefcase of hell
on the table between us
and I said:
This is the piece of private hell
I constantly carry with me.
Can you still love me?
And you said:
Each one of us carries
his briefcase of hell
attached to his wrist
like a tracking bracelet for inmates
Then you showed me
your briefcase
