Patricia Benito Manzano
(Las Palmas de G.C. 1978)
I was born on an island and I don´t know how to swim.
I´ve lived in three cities, nine homes, and a few houses.
I fell in love once. I´ve escaped a train engulfed in
flames and I´ve seen a bomb explode. I don´t believe in
things that last forever. Or maybe I do, I don´t know.
Strawberries, with condensed milk. Every once in a
while I need to relocate things, whether it´s furniture,
people or my whole life. If I don´t travel, I can´t
breathe. I have a senti-verbal lack of control. I could
get lost in any sunset, preferably by the sea. I fall in
love too fast and I fall out too slowly. I don´t remember
the last time I fell asleep right away. I measure time in
half-beers and I don´t plan beyond a beer and a half. I
cry at protests when I hear Labordeta. I need you
close, but not on top of me. I always go for the
weakest one. I can´t imagine a world without cheese or
chocolate. It´s almost always better to give than to
receive and I´m not talking about sex, not just sex. The
queen of my house is a crippled cat that doesn´t stop
purring. Empathy should move the whole world, not
just mine. If you´ve read up to here, you can stay.
