Every place is also another
Laura Camino


Todos os lugares son tamén outro
por iso sostés a miña man de arxila limpa neste soto
(escuro)
e os nosos corpos espidos de fronteiras inabarcables
(amantes)
cinguen xuntos un desexo de fuxida cara adiante 
(superviventes)
como unha flor de liño branco que medra vizosa en territorio ignoto
(fértil) 
porque detrás de nós…que é o que queda?
Acaso
unha esperanza. 

*

Every place is also another 
that's why you hold my clean clay hand in this basement
(dark)
and our naked bodies of unfathomable borders
(lovers)
embrace together a desire to flee onwards
(survivors)
like a white linen flower growing vigorous in unknown territory
(fertile)
because behind us...what's left?
Perhaps
a hope.
