Lina Zeron


BURNING COAL
.
To erase me from the earth is useless pretension
Not the fever rampant at night,
not the screams squeezed, out of my body
or all his poison devouring my womb.
ferocious pain stalking me.
.
I refuse to be just another worm in the grass
a piece of burning coal,
or sawdust filled skull.
.
I'm not dust returning to dust
or useless obituary in the newspaper.
.
I'm stronger than the despicable cells
reproducing daily.
.
I am the flood that erases the roads,
turbulence of dunes in the desert.
.
Death will not defeat me.
