I'm excited to do a lot today. I'm going to send out some zines, and work on conjugação. I'll have pizza for dinner again. I don't have any dough, I think I'll just make a tortilla and use that. Maybe a few tortillas, I can use them for other things too.

spanish poets obsessed with walking

Caminante, no hay camino / Traveler, There Is No Road by Antonio Machado

  1. Caminante, son tus huellas
  2. el camino y nada más;
  3. Caminante, no hay camino,
  4. se hace camino al andar.
  5. Al andar se hace el camino,
  6. y al volver la vista atrás
  7. se ve la senda que nunca
  8. se ha de volver a pisar.
  9. Caminante, no hay camino
  10. sino estelas en la mar.
  1. Traveler, your footprints
  2. are the path, nothing else.
  3. Traveler, there is no path,
  4. the path is made through walking.
  5. As you walk, you make the path,
  6. and when you look back
  7. you see the trail
  8. you will never tread again.
  9. Traveler, there is no path
  10. only wakes in the sea.

Corriente / In Motion by Federico García Lorca

  1. El que camina
  2. se enturbia
  1. El agua corriende
  2. no ve las estrellas
  1. El que camina
  2. se olvida
  1. Y el que se para
  2. sueña
  1. He that walks
  2. gets dirty
  1. running water
  2. doesn't see the stars
  1. He that walks
  2. forgets
  1. and he that stops
  2. dreams

I'm not going to say much else

I'm going to walk about today, with all that entails,
and in the evening stop and dream
