“Tomorrow”
David Budbill
Tomorrow
we are
bones and ash,
the roots of weeds
poking through
our skulls.
Today,
simple clothes,
empty mind,
full stomach,
alive, aware,
right here,
right now.
Drunk on music,
who needs wine?
Come on,
Sweetheart,
let’s go dancing
while we’ve
still got feet.

"Mañana"
Mañana
somos
huesos y cenizas,
las raíces de los yuyos
asomando a través
de nuestras calaveras.
Hoy,
Hoy,
ropas simples,
mente vacía,
estómago lleno,
vivos, alertas,
aquí,
ahora.
Embriagado de música,
quién necesita vino?
Vamos,
mi amor,
bailemos
mientras
tengamos pies.
