Prayer For An Opening Program

FOUR YEAR WRITTEN IN OCTOBER 1985 THREE FOR THREE

Scaffolding flickering life

because I can not maintain the desired balance. To obtain such

to recycle and contain all the crying
forgotten. Scaffolding firm
death
to reach you with such vast experience, do not forget

my bad luck to have lived with a conscience. José Antonio Oman

Lezama.




I saw on the moon and I met him in the sun
I saw him laughing and crying
met him I saw him awake and dreaming
met him I saw him looking and I met him I saw him sucking
drawing and writing
I met him I saw friends and I met him I saw him talking alone

thinking and I knew I saw it in the "A" and I met him in the "Z"
I saw him looking and I knew
I saw him struggling in the dark and I knew the truth
I saw him in life and I met him in death. José Antonio Oman

Lezama.
