A Different future
Ivan David Brieva Maldonado 1980 (Bogotá)
Un futuro diferente
Bienvenidos al contrasentido,
¿Cuál es la ansiedad,
para que llegue el juicio final?
¿Tan mal estamos,
que en el horizonte no vemos felicidad
sino la extinción de la humanidad?
Como si fuera un concurso,
en más de cien ocasiones
se le ha puesto fecha al fin del mundo.
Disfruten del contrasentido,
¿Cuál es el miedo
si mi camino siempre estuvo bendecido?
¡En vez de estar agradecidos!
Cuando se entienda eso,
el futuro no quedará en manos de la esperanza
sino en la valoración justa de la existencia.
About this poem
