Trópico/Tropics

 Te has quedado solo

con tu bastón

bajo un portal

que te protege

de la intensa lluvia

que no te deja ver la calle

a unos cuantos metros.

Vagas luces de automóviles,

destellos intermitentes

convierten el mediodía

en un confuso paisaje,

que solo puedes contemplar,

inmóvil.

Tropics

You have been left alone,

with your cane,

beneath a doorway

that shelters you

from the heavy rain

that keeps you

from seeing the street

just a few meters away.

Faint headlights,

their intermittent flashes,

turn midday

into a blurred landscape

that you can only watch,

motionless.
