Noèlia Díaz Vicedo

6 (CANT I)

River that came to me without pity.

The pity of the potatoes in the oven

Of a crying child unborn.

River. River served since childhood

Row the happy waters that time has frozen

Now, I am what they wanted me to be.

I am just a piece of furniture.

A body with no flowers

And not even that can I say.

I cannot say I am a woman

Giving birth is all I am worth,

To whom do I go to ask about Love?
