La Madrugada
Estoy aquí
en
la soledad
mi
soledad.
Los
gatos han desayunado
y
regresado
a
roncar
La
estrellas han hecho su turno
y
ahora
mientras
ellas están corriendo
nosotros
en la tierra
esperamos
el sol.
¿Dónde
estas Lorenzo?
¿dónde
estas?
Es
lunes
y
te esperamos

And then there was a plague.
And
then there was a plague. Here
on this small Spanish
island we must wear
masks in enclosed spaces and attempt to maintain a reasonable space
between ourselves and
other pilgrims sashaying on the cobbled historic streets of my
adopted home. Sadly there are areas on the mainland which are
suffering anew, accompanied by the usual recriminations of he said
she said and the politics of any colour.
Complacency
is the new enemy, with masks gloves and continual hand washing now
the norm, the law in some countries, this new norm, and how long will
we be required to hide behind a face covering. Many reject this
imposition, including people with power and influence, remarkably
conspiracy theories now
fly in the wind keeping
company with the virus.
But
is it so remarkable? Horrendous yes, obscene absolutely, above all
sad. While the reality is an almost impossible conundrum
between lives and economics
and not
one politician has an answer.
Do
you?

Ayer y otros días....
Fuimos a ver la maestra ayer, la primera vez en tres meses gracias al virus. Vale la pena creo yo, hablábamos sobre la concordancia de palabras, femenino y masculino tal y cual. Voy a trabajar con este problema esta semana y espero que puedo mejorar un poco mas. Otra cosa que he aprendido mientras escuchando mi propio voz, si señores, a mi mismo, hay que hablar mas clara y tal vez mas despacio también. Lo sé que la gente aquí tiene su propia manera de hablar, dichos etc, pero eso es lo mismo por continentes y países. Integrar y aprender es el reto...Y vaya reto... Soy el escocés errante y esto es español con errores...
