Nuestro señor desollado
alimento de la humanidad
esencia del macrocosmos
Tezcatlipoca rojo.
Tlacaxipehualiztli
hombres descarnados
viste con mi armadura
piel dorada, teopixqui.
Obsidiana escarlata
desgarra tu cuerpo
putrefacto aroma de sacrificio
extirpando el corazón.
Muerte con flechas
ritual de la primavera
sangre que emana
la fértil lluvia en mi tierra.
El sacrificio de carne
la nueva piel de la vegetación
Te bebes la noche
para enjuagar sequías.
Nuestro señor despellejado
que naces con el sol
germinas con la primavera
te alimentas con la sangre.
