Xochipilli diminished

En la muerte de dos sacerdotes de Xochipilli

--------------------------a Juan Domingo y Roberto Almanzán
-----------------------------(1951-2016)-------(1937-2017)


La vida es rica y breve
como arco iris que mide
de un punto del tiempo a otro
y esfumándose como humo de copal
deja vacíos los puños
de Xochipilli, Príncipe de las flores,
perdidas sus flores y sus sonajas

On the Death of two Priests of Xochipilli

----------------------t to Juan Domingo & Roberto Almanzán
-----------------------------(1951-2016)-------(1937-2017)


Life is rich & brief
like a rainbow that measures
from a point in time to another
& fading like incense smoke
leaves empty the fists
of Xochipilli, Prince of flowers,
lost his flowers & his rattles.
