00:00How are you? Good night. I told you we'd see each other again soon. Today I'm going to read you two more poems, two more sonnets, not on Sunday, but on Monday.
00:12Monday night reading. These are two poems that somehow relate to the theme of writing, and of writing poems perhaps in particular, and of writing in general.
00:24Confession to Dr. Lillian Fonderval de Moeno.
00:54They're discreet, and I can't seem to be a lemon, nor a lime. When a sound doesn't come out of my mind, it's a very real sound from the neighbor.
01:05My studies and cooking are all mixed up. I am both a sinner and a penitent. I am a poor, negligent amateur.
01:15I am a fake writer with no self-esteem.
01:20Well, that's a sonnet I wrote one night, probably on a Friday, before Easter in 2018.
01:30And this is one I wrote a little later, to console myself for the beating I had just given myself with the first one.
01:39Let me see what I think. Sorry about this, it's a bit improvised and everything's moving around.
01:46One more page. Take it step by step. Don't expect or demand more of yourself.
01:52One page. Okay, now the error will remain there, because, well, this is live.
01:59And no way, I was busy with other things, I was entertaining myself mentally.
02:04Excuse me, here it goes again.
02:07One more page. Take it step by step. Don't expect or demand more of yourself.
02:13Stay here with yourself. Come here. One more page. Give yourself a hug.
02:20Don't fall for worldly deceptions. Take one step at a time as you walk.
02:26Don't want to write anything more than publish it. Avoid such mistakes for love.
02:31Go and eat some tamales instead. Go and have a beer instead.
02:38Choose the lesser of two evils. Save yourself the headache.
02:44You understand very well what I'm saying. I know, because I'm you, what's up with you.
02:50As you can see, it's also a kind of self-dialogue that we sometimes do, right?
02:58Beyond poetry.
03:01And if we don't feel like continuing to play dumb, one day we suddenly start talking to each other in this clear, direct, and honest way.
03:11If you have any comments to make, great, excellent.
03:22I'll leave it at that. I'm going to keep experimenting with this.
03:25Two or three poems per night or per morning.
03:29And so, let's see how it goes.
03:31Let's see if they decide to interact in some way.
03:33Comment if you like it, if you like it, if you have any opinion.
03:40In any case, it is a matter of, let's say, experimentation.
03:43I'm going to keep going around, connecting here and there, doing things and always hoping to talk.
