TWO POEMS 
EDUARDO ESCALANTE 

Call for Love

See how the Light extends day and day allowing to sleep in peace. Each life minute, like the notes of a larger universe, builds from scattered fragments that remain connected by a line, sometimes invisible, traversing the space, denoting distances, time, emptiness, and silence between one piece and another. Showing the possible and infinite relationships that exist between things. Someone reads aloud what God wrote in the universe about his life. The blessing drinks from the sea waves.  Give water to those who do not dream. Nothing distorts my hope, no rock, no door.

Faith

In the end, the thoughtless impetuosity of nature and singing birds overlap with the spring sympathy. If at any moment the moon has withdrawn, and the sun has fallen asleep for a moment, the light always returns, only a slight wave of darkness and the ashamed smile of the ignorant. Mass for the instant, coffin for the hour. Where is the strangeness lost and constancy refuges? A flight of revelation with clear borders. One requires reading Sacred Writings to understand the journey.
