En tierras blancas de sed<\/span><\/p>\n

partidas de abrasamiento,<\/span><\/p>\n

los Cristos llamados cactus<\/span><\/p>\n

vigilan desde lo eterno.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Soledades, soledades,<\/span><\/p>\n

desatados peladeros.<\/span><\/p>\n

La tierra crispada y seca<\/span><\/p>\n

se aparea con sus muertos,<\/span><\/p>\n

y el espino y el espino<\/span><\/p>\n

braceando su desespero,<\/span><\/p>\n

y el cha\u00f1ar cociendo el fruto<\/span><\/p>\n

al sol que se lo arde entero.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Y en el altozano y en<\/span><\/p>\n

las quebradas, como aperos<\/span><\/p>\n

tirados como tendal,<\/span><\/p>\n

tumbados de buhoneros,<\/span><\/p>\n

aldeas y caser\u00edos<\/span><\/p>\n

llenos de ro\u00f1a y misterio.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Locos repechos, bajadas<\/span><\/p>\n

como para ni\u00f1o y ciervo,<\/span><\/p>\n

pero apenas un boecillo<\/span><\/p>\n

de pastos de trecho en trecho<\/span><\/p>\n

y caser\u00edos callados<\/span><\/p>\n

a medio alzarse, de miedo,<\/span><\/p>\n

bajo el viento que los lleva<\/span><\/p>\n

y que los suelta en dos tiempos.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Y otras tierras desolladas<\/span><\/p>\n

en Bartolom\u00e9 inmensos,<\/span><\/p>\n

de un costado desangradas,<\/span><\/p>\n

del otro en tendido incendio.<\/span><\/p>\n

Y otra y otra vez aldeas<\/span><\/p>\n

acurrucadas, friolentas,<\/span><\/p>\n

con techo de paja y<\/span><\/p>\n

huyendo y permaneciendo.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tienen sed el cabrero<\/span><\/p>\n

el olivillo y la salvia,<\/span><\/p>\n

el pasto de cortos dedos<\/span><\/p>\n

y el cuarzo y el cuellecillo<\/span><\/p>\n

de muchachito y el ciervo.<\/span><\/p>\n

Miseria de higuera sola<\/span><\/p>\n

azuleando higos cence\u00f1os<\/span><\/p>\n

y de tunal en que ara\u00f1a<\/span><\/p>\n

a tientas un rapazuelo<\/span><\/p>\n

y de mujeres que vuelcan<\/span><\/p>\n

las \u201cgamelas\u201d y los tiestos<\/span><\/p>\n

y el umbral empedernido:<\/span><\/p>\n

toda la Tierra y el cielo.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Claman \u00a1agua!, silabean<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a1agua! durmiendo o despiertos.<\/span><\/p>\n

La desvar\u00edan tumbados<\/span><\/p>\n

o en pie, con substancia y miembros.<\/span><\/p>\n

Y agua que les van a dar a<\/span><\/p>\n

los tres entes pasajeros<\/span><\/p>\n

con garganta que nos arde<\/span><\/p>\n

y los costados resecos.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cruzamos, pasamos, blancos<\/span><\/p>\n

de puna y de polvo suelto,<\/span><\/p>\n

del resuello de la Gea<\/span><\/p>\n

y el sol blanco de ojo ciego<\/span><\/p>\n

y repetimos los tres<\/span><\/p>\n

callando, de pecho adentro;<\/span><\/p>\n

Agua de Dios, un cadejo<\/span><\/p>\n

de nube, un hilillo fresco.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

El agua en sorbo o en hebra,<\/span><\/p>\n

sonando su silabeo,<\/span><\/p>\n

merced al hilo de agua<\/span><\/p>\n

delgada, piedad de estero,<\/span><\/p>\n

mejor que el oro y la plata<\/span><\/p>\n

y el amor dado y devuelto.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

No se me doble el huemul<\/span><\/p>\n

al que le blanquea el belfo<\/span><\/p>\n

y no me mire el diaguita<\/span><\/p>\n

que me rompe su deseo.<\/span><\/p>\n

Un poco m\u00e1s y ella salta<\/span><\/p>\n

con sus ojos azulencos<\/span><\/p>\n

y van a beber de bruces<\/span><\/p>\n

con rizadas de contento<\/span><\/p>\n

m\u00e1s doblados que sus cuellos<\/span><\/p>\n

iguales en ciervo y ciervo.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Se \u00e1ran, o siguen y arden,<\/span><\/p>\n

callan y laten enteros;<\/span><\/p>\n

y el soplo que yo les doy<\/span><\/p>\n

no les vale, de ser fuego\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Apunta si el \u201cojo de agua\u201d,<\/span><\/p>\n

ya en lo bajo del faldeo;<\/span><\/p>\n

yo no s\u00e9, no, si es verdad<\/span><\/p>\n

o mentira del deseo.<\/span><\/p>\n

Est\u00e1 redondo y perfecto,<\/span><\/p>\n

est\u00e1 en anillo peque\u00f1o;<\/span><\/p>\n

brilla peque\u00f1ito y quieto<\/span><\/p>\n

con dos p\u00e1rpados de hierba<\/span><\/p>\n

y el ojo a nosotros vuelto<\/span><\/p>\n

asombrado de si mismo,<\/span><\/p>\n

sin voz, pero con destello<\/span><\/p>\n

milagro tardio y cierto.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a1C\u00f3mo beben, c\u00f3mo beben<\/span><\/p>\n

que yo les oigo los cuellos!<\/span><\/p>\n

Y bebiendo son iguales<\/span><\/p>\n

el con belfo y el sin belfo.<\/span><\/p>\n

La lenguecilla rosada<\/span><\/p>\n

apura su terciopelo<\/span><\/p>\n

y el ni\u00f1o bebi\u00f3 con toda<\/span><\/p>\n

su cara que tomo y seco.<\/span><\/p>\n
