La cebolla es escarcha
Cerrada y pobre.
Escarcha de tus días
Y de mis noches.
Hambre y cebolla,
Hielo negro y escarcha
Grande y redonda.
En la cuna del hambre
Mi niño estaba.
Con sangre de cebolla
Se amamantaba.
Pero tu sangre,
Escarchada de azúcar,
Cebolla y hambre.
Una mujer morena
Resuelta en luna
Se derrama hilo a hilo
Sobre la cuna.
Ríete, niño,
Que te traigo la luna
Cuando es preciso.
Tu risa me hace libre,
Me pone alas.
Soledades me quita,
Cárcel me arranca.
Boca que vuela,
Corazón que en tus labios
Relampaguea.
Desperté de ser niño:
Nunca despiertes.
Triste llevo la boca:
Ríete siempre.
No te derrumbes.
No sepas lo que pasa ni
Lo que ocurre.
