Hijo del cerro,
Presagio de mala muerte,
Niño silvestre
Que acechando la acera viene y va.
Niño de nadie
Que buscandose la vida
Desluce la avenida
Y le da mala fama a la ciudad.
Recien nacido
Con la inocencia amputada
Que en la manada
Redime su pecado de existir.
Niño sin niño,
Indefenso y asustado
Que aprende a fuerza de palos,
Como las bestias, a sobrevivir.
Nin~o silvestre
Lustrabotas y ratero
Se vende a piezas o entero
Como onza de chocolate.
Ronda la calle
Mientras el dia la ronde
Que por la noche se esconde
Para que no le maten.
Y si la suerte,
Por llamarlo de algun modo,
Auyenta al lobo
Y le alarga la vida un poco mas.
Si el pegamento
No le pudre los pulmones,
Si escapa de los matones,
Si sobrevive al latigo, quizas,
Llegue hasta viejo
Entre carceles y 'fierros'
Sembrando el cerro
De mas niños silvestres, al azar,
Y cualquier noche
En un trabajo de limpieza
Le vuele la cabeza
A alguno de ellos, sin pestanear.
Niño silvestre...
