" Georgie , Jorge Luis Borges, Tango"
( tango )
Like trying to describe to Borges,
in this daring Tango with poor verses.
The shadows that emulate hallways ,
on a lazy courtyard of a neighborhood with Moon.
The idle power of the corner,
and Buenos Aires , you longs ...
And on the street " Maipu " those shadows ,
between shadows playing on the walls .
And in the evening, " acquitted " green ,
that capture the " Plaza San Martin "
The generously , I knew register ,
on those evenings , October ...
And always, your cheerful youth in " Geneva "
irreplaceable and your faithful friend, " Maurice Abramowicz " ...
Meanwhile, passes midnight
that " elf " appears , incorruptible .
Who prowls these mirrors ,
which passes by the " perplexed " corridors
Those of a " labyrinth Buenos Aires "
described by ominous " Greek hexameters "
And that low, " Juncal " .
just below the asphalt ,
and direct, to the " Tower of English " ...
And Alley, " Buenos Aires "
the amazing silhouette of a " warrior Northumbrian " ....
The misadventure of a " saga" of " Ericksson "
The bombastic sword of a knight of " Wessex " ...
And " Maldonado " announcing the suburb ,
"less water I mud."
In an old arena ... tied
a ' black capes bay "with " criollo errand "
And the voice of the customers ,
disputing a heated "Trick " ...
The " Towers Balvanera " a quiet destination ...
and flash " brightness of a knife."
Also spotted , marble threshold ,
under the stalking of a " busy " rain
that " baptized " with " puddles " sidewalks,
in the last drops of the " Hourglass " ...
The " Eleatic " with its " inextricable guesses "
a Being , but still, as ever.
Advance of "Odyssey "
of " Parmenides " , and " the Leneas " ...
And meet fellow members ...
With " Macedonian ", " Lugones " and " Evaristo Carriego "
in the " Palermo " courage , his inordinate outrage
Where meek suburb, expressed imminent ,
waiting for the " fate ",
his unsuspected " shuffle " ...
There is no city that better, I boasts,
City tired of " brunettes " , unbeatable ...
This Buenos Aires ,
with imperturbable , "nonsense " ...
And it's worth it ! ... This tribute ! ...
If there is not a Tango,
more Tango , that " Borges " ...
