Poesías desde Adentro

NADA ES ETERNO

Nunca vuelve para siempre
y en la luz visionaria tiembla
el ascenso del destino litigioso
delirante, cansado y en duda.

Cada ves más se agudiza
la espera del tentoso olvido
o las ganas de querernos
en esta trayectoria vital.

En las aletas del firmamento
la pista del vanidoso futuro
parece tomar fuerza y esperamos
(nunca vuelve para siempre)

Prevalece indeleble la muerte
en los centauros y en los caballos
bárbaros y permanente es la furia
en las flechas y lanzas del batallón.

Debemos beber la sangre por agua
en la fatiga de la potestad inefable
al caer el último guerrero de la fe
y morir la voluntad de luchar.

Nada es eterno para siempre
tan solo la cama de la muerte
y la ruina del castigo / soberano
que nos declina y nos / calcina.

DECIDE

Traté
de amarte
y amé.

Pensé
besarte
y amarte;

Y dije
en carta
alguna

Elije
Oh Marta
tu cuna.

Waswali Prison Water Well Project

Hello everybody!
We have great news to announce!! As part of our Project Prison Break we had applied in May 2010 to the Dutch Embassy´s small projects (PKP ODA) program to fund the revalidation of the prison´s water system.
Due to water shortages in the dry season, conditions of personal hygiene for all 800 inmates become precarious not being able to use more than four liters of water per day for showering, drinking, using the toilet, and washing their clothes as the water only comes once a week by truck from the city of Matagalpa. The funding from the Dutch Embassy is a USD 10,000 contract which will be directly invested in the prison´s second, abandoned, water well. Once this well is revitalized and equiped (the project is due to be finished end of March 2011) it will be able to provide the extra capacity needed so the other well doesn´t fall dry and the prison population can shower, use the bathroom, drink, and wash their clothes normally. Moreover, we will provide the prison population with tips and tricks how to use water more practically and responsibly during the dry season.
The water well project is a fantastic start of our struggle with Project Prison Break to improve the prison´s material conditions - thank you so very much Dutch Embassy, for the funding and also for all the great comments and suggestions we received in our first process of application for funds of this magnitude! Once the well is revitalized and equiped for the dry season, it will mean a considerable direct improvement of the prison population´s daily living conditions. An improvement of which we hope to be making many more with Project Prison Break!!! The cells, the school, the kitchen...!!
Love,
LLECA
