MALA SANGRE (III)

Leo a Julieta Valero. Me cuenta que el deseo es un órgano vital como el arpa en las batallas, pero yo sé que para nosotras, la niñas tontas, el deseo es esa moneda brillante. Esa moneda que no tenemos. Moneda de cambio en la felicidad. Te doy tres papelitos y cuatro besos si me dejas dormir en una casa caliente. Que ser feliz es tener dinero. Que ser feliz es comprarse libros. Que ser feliz es vestir la ropa que Nadia nos roba en grandes almacenes. Pantalones de cuero. Camisetas transparentes. Zapatos de tacón marrones con tachue- las brillantes. Chalecos salvavidas. Angina en el escote. Solo visto ropa robada. Solo huelo a caro y a robado. Que ser feliz es qué. Nadie lo sabe. Y si alguien lo supiera, ¿a quién se lo diría? ¿Por qué compartirlo?
Si algún día sonríes que sea tu secreto.
Si algún día despiertas alegre que sea tu puto secreto.
El mundo se desmorona y tú te diviertes.
Que sea tu secreto.

BAD BLOOD (III)

I’m reading Julieta Valero.  She tells me desire is a vital organ, like a harp on the battlefield, but I know that for us, the dumb girls, desire is that shining coin.  That coin we don’t have.  The currency of happiness.  I’ll give you three little papers and four kisses if you let me sleep in a warm home.  Being happy is having money.  Being happy is buying books.  Being happy is wearing the clothes Nadia steals for us in department stores.  Leather pants.  See-through shirts.  Brown heels with shining tacks.  Life-vests.  Heart-pain in the décolletage.  I only wear stolen clothes.  I only smell expensive and stolen.  Being happy is what.  Nobody knows.  And if someone knew, who would they tell?  Why share it?
If some day you smile, let it be your secret.
If some day you wake up happy, let it be your fucking secret.
The world is falling apart and you’re having fun.
Let it be your secret.
