SC5 FLIGHT IN SYDNEY AIRPORT, DEC 24, 2359 PM




Even to Sydney, from the North Pole, this guy (SC5) came to the airport to work with me on xmas eve.

CINEMA PARADISO




Sicilia, Italy, WWII era
Three different times, I dont know if its the part when Toto is a kid and since the very begining of his life, He fucking knew what was gonna be all about, or maybe the part when Hes 16, his name is Salvatore and Elena was on his films, I dont know if anybody waits a whole year nite by nite, finally the whole thing as an old man, doing the best in his life by killing the always looked for. Again the chaos theory, fucking Alfredo!!! and the last part, in the cinema, the soundtracks and the pictures above, throat lump.

SCENT OF A WOMAN




Al Pacino:
Women !
What can you say ?
Who made 'em ?
God must have been a fuckin' genius.
The hair
They say the hair is everything, you know.
Have you ever buried your nose in a mountain of curls...
and just wanted to go to sleep forever ?
Or lips
and when they touched, yours were like...
that first swallow of wine...
after you just crossed the desert.
Tits ! Whoo-ah !!
Big ones, little ones,
nipples staring right out at ya...
like secret searchlights.
Mmm.
And legs
I don't care if they're Greek columns...
or secondhand Steinways.
What's between 'em,
passport to heaven.
I need a drink.
Yes, Mr. Simms,
there's only two syllables
in this whole wide world worth hearing:
pussy.
Hah !
Are you listening to me, son ?
I'm givin' you pearls here.
I guess you really like women.
Oh, above all things !
A very, very distant second...
is a Ferrari.
Charlie ?
Give me your hand.
This is just the start of your education, son.
Whoo-ah !

CLOSER




Anna's
ANNA: Why are you dressed?
LARRY: Because I think you might be about to leave me, and I didn't want to be wearing a dressing gown.
LARRY: I slept with someone in New York. A whore. I'm sorry.
ANNA: Why did you tell me?
LARRY: I couldn't lie to you.
ANNA: Why not?
LARRY: Because I love you.
ANNA: It's fine.
LARRY: Really? Why?
He's confused.
LARRY: Something's wrong. Tell me.
LARRY: Are you leaving me?
Anna nods.
LARRY: Because of this? Why?
ANNA: Dan.
LARRY: Cupid? He's our joke.
ANNA: I love him.
LARRY: You're seeing him now?
Anna nods.
LARRY: Since when?
ANNA: Since my opening last year.
Covering her mouth...
ANNA: I'm disgusting.
LARRY: You're phenomenal. You're so clever. Why did you marry me?
ANNA: I stopped seeing him. I wanted us to work.
LARRY: Why did you tell me you wanted children?
ANNA: Because I did.
LARRY: And now you want children with him?
ANNA: Yes... I don't know.
LARRY: But... we're happy. Aren't we.
She glares at him.
LARRY: You're going to go and live with him?
ANNA: You stay here if you want.
LARRY: Oh, look. I don't give a fuck about the spoils. You know, you did this to me the day we met. You let me hang myself for your amusement. Why didn't you just tell me the moment I walked through the door?
ANNA: I was scared.
LARRY: You're a coward, you spoiled bitch.
LARRY: Are you dressed 'cause you thought I might hit you?
LARRY: What do you think I am?
ANNA: I've been hit before.
LARRY: Not by me!
LARRY: Is he a good fuck?
ANNA: Don't do this.
LARRY: Just answer the question. Is he good?
ANNA: Yes.
LARRY: Better than me?
ANNA: Different.
LARRY: Better?
ANNA: Gentler.
LARRY: What does that mean?
ANNA: You know what it means.
LARRY: Tell me.
ANNA: No.
LARRY: I treat you like a whore.
ANNA: Sometimes.
LARRY: Why would that be?
ANNA: I'm sorry you're a...
LARRY: Don't say it. Don't you fucking say "You're too good for me." I am, but don't say it. You're making the mistake of your life. You're leaving me because you believe that you don't deserve happiness, but you do, Anna.
LARRY: Did you have a bath because you had sex with him? So you wouldn't smell of him. So you'd feel less guilty?
LARRY: How do you feel?
ANNA: Guilty.
LARRY: Did you ever love me?
ANNA: Yes.
He starts crying. She embraces him.
---
Cut to Dan's. He walks back into his apartment, alone and miserable, and shuts the door.
---
Cut back to Anna's...
LARRY: Did you do it here?
ANNA: No.
LARRY: Why not?
ANNA: Do you wish we did?
LARRY: Just tell me the truth.
ANNA: Yes, we did it here.
LARRY: Where?
Anna points.
ANNA: There.
LARRY: On this. We had our first fuck on this. Did you think of me?
LARRY: When? When did you do it here?
LARRY: Answer the question!
ANNA: This evening.
LARRY: Did you cum?
ANNA: Why are you doing this?
LARRY: 'cause I want to know.
ANNA: First he went down on me, and then we fucked.
LARRY: Who was where?
ANNA: I was on top, then he fucked me from behind.
LARRY: And that's when you came the second time.
ANNA: Why is the sex so important?
LARRY: Because I'm a fucking caveman!
LARRY: Did you touch yourself while he fucked you?
ANNA: Yes.
LARRY: You wank for him.
ANNA: Sometimes.
LARRY: And he does.
ANNA: We do everything that people who have sex do!
LARRY: You enjoy sucking him off.
ANNA: Yes!
LARRY: You like his cock.
ANNA: I love his cock!
LARRY: You like him cumming in your face.
ANNA: Yes!
LARRY: What does it taste like?
ANNA: It tastes like you but sweeter!
LARRY: That's the spirit. Thank you. Thank you for your honesty. Now fuck off and die, you fucked up slag.

CUANDO QUIERO LLORAR NO LLORO




Entre el 8 de noviembre de 1968 y el mismo día de 1982, fechas de nacimiento y muerte de tres muchachos por mera coincidencia llamados Victorino y cuyas proezas vitales -testimonios de la violencia juvenil imperante- terminan por entrecruzarse en el cementerio. Cada uno de los Victorino representa una mirada sobre cierta porción de la sociedad. El primero de ellos -Victorino Umaña- es un burgués, patotero del norte capitalino y rebelde sin causa cuyo conflicto existencial parece diluirse en efímeros sinsabores que terminan por conducirlo al sueño eterno entre la carrocería de su lujoso automóvil y sus negocios con la mafia. El otro Victorino -apellidado Perdomo- pertenece a una clase media que aún cree en las luchas colectivas y se enfila en la guerrilla urbana, submundo que lo arroja a la muerte entre los balazos de un asalto a un banco. Finalmente, Victorino Moya es el hijo del proletario, sicario asomado sin caretas al hampa y fulminado por la policía en medio de un atraco de vulgar aliento citadino y arreglo para asesinar. Las madres de los tres muchachos se tropiezan enlutadas y parsimoniosas en el campo santo sin saberse víctimas de una misma congoja.

I CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF YOU

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new

RABBIT TEETH

Last night I was four years old, and I was in Kinder, waiting for the class to begin, the tables were emerald colour and you can open them and stockpile your bag and your books there while school lasts.
Stella was my teacher, she was huge and fat, wore black pants and a red sweater, neither in the front nor the back we were sitting together, Kelly, four as well, gorgeous, particularly her teeth, those two teeth big and coming out, made her what she was, first woman I was attracted in my life so far.
Her father used to pick her up, every day, punctually, at 1 pm, while I was waiting for my auntie to come a take me home, it was a spectacular routine watching her going on her father’s motorcycle everyday.

ME GUSTAS CUANDO CALLAS

Me gustas cuando callas porque estas como ausente y me oyes desde lejos, y mi voz no te toca. Parece que los ojos se te hubieran volado y parece que un beso te cerrara la boca.

Como todas las cosas estan llenas de mi alma emerges de las cosas llenas del alma mia. Mariposa de ensueño, te pareces a mi alma y te pareces a la palabra melancolia.

Me gustas cuando callas, y estas como distante y estas como quejandote, mariposa en arrullo Y me oyes desde lejos y mi voz no te alcanza: dejame que me calle en el silencio tuyo.

Dejame que te hable tambien con tu silencio claro como una lampara, simple como un anillo. Eres como la noche callada y constelada. Tu silencio es de estrella, tan lejano y sencillo.

Me gustas cuando callas porque estas como ausente, distante y dolorosa como si hubieras muerto. Una palabra entonces, una sonrisa bastan. Y estoy alegre, de que no sea cierto.

CANSADO

Hace unos dias pensando en su nombre lo senti lejano, no lo encontre significar lo mismo que siempre ha sido, hoy la extraño, asi sea ese extraño del que usted habla que no le dice lo que quiere oir, pero que usted sabe que es verdad, no puedo hacer nada contra el nudo en la garganta pues aunque no tiene nada que ver con usted no evita tener que cruzarmela en la esquina 16 de mi cerebro, si ese cerebro al que arroje acido sulfurico. Hoy pense que todo habia sido un error mio, pero tambien me acuerdo que no pudo ser peor lo que hiciste.

WHERE ADAM AND EVA WERE FROM?

A German, a French, an English and a COLOMBIAN were commenting about a painting where Adam and Eva were in paradise.

The German says: "look the perfection of the bodies, she is gorgeous and tall, his body is athletic, the muscles...they must be from Germany".

Inmediatly the French reacted saying: "I dont think so, its clear the erotism coming from them...she is so feminine, he is so masculine, they know temptation is close...they must be from France".

Moving his head really quick the English comments: Come on!, look the serenity on their faces, the sobriety of their gestures, their gentleness, they only can be from England".

After several seconds of looking at the painting the COLOMBIAN says:

I disagree, look closely, they do not have clothes, they do not have shoes, they do not even have a house, they just have a fucking apple to eat, they do not complaint about it and besides these stupid think they are in paradise, these poor bastards can only be Colombians!!!!

ROTSEN

Las ecuaciones de la vida plantean incognitas complejas que sólo se pueden resolver llevando el sistema al absurdo. para dónde ir? la vida es lo que venga pero a veces podemos decidir un poco. Estoy en una encrucijada.
Mi corazón como en el poema anda mal. hay razones del corazón que la razón no entiende. No te habías fijado que corazón y razón se escriben casi igual: que el corazón viene siendo una razón compartida por aquello del "co" que es un prefijo de cooperación, de acción conjunta.

Te extraño para que hablemos del cosmos, de la relatividad, del caos, los fractales y de nosotros.

    LA INSPIRACIÓN




    Se trata de Kristiania, el Oslo actual, vista desde Ekeberg, en cuyo asilo siquiatrico estaba su hermana Laura, que sufria esquizofrenia, adeamas ahi al lado quedaba el matadero municipal, asi que inspirado en los gritos de los orates y animales mueriendo imagino esto...

    AJIACO SANTAFEREÑO



    2 chicken breasts
    garlic and onion chicken stock
    12 small yellow potatoes, cut in halves
    2 ears of corn, cut in halves
    8 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 5 mm slices
    1 bunch scallions
    1 bunch cilantro
    8 guascas
    1 cups of heavy cream
    2 capers, drained
    2 avocados, peeled, pitted and thinly sliced salt
    4 pieces of corn

    The night before marinate the chicken breasts with garlic, onion and salt.

    In a heavy 4-liter casserole, put the breasts, add water, cover and cook until the chicken is tender.

    Transfer the chicken to a platter.

    Remove the skin from the chicken and discard.

    Cut the chicken breasts into strips.

    Cook the yellow potatoes in the casserole with the chicken stock until they start to disintegrate.

    Add more chicken stock to taste.

    At this point the soup should be thick and fairly smooth.

    Add the bunch of scallions, the bunch of cilantro, the sliced potatoes, the guascas, and the corn.

    When cooked remove the bunch of cilantro and the bunch of scallions.

    Serve the chicken on soup bowls and pour the soup into the bowls.

    Pour the cream and the chopped capers on each bowl.

    Float the sliced avocado on top.

    Serves 4.

    You definitively have to use guascas if you want to call your soup Ajiaco. It's not easy to get them out of Colombia, but they give this soup its characteristic flavor.

    MAS PELUDO

    MADE IN HEAVEN




    1987 was created, 1993 was seen first time ever, old movie I waited until 1999 to see it again, only took me 6 years, a whole life I might say, that night I was 10 years old and was home alone, zapping channels when there was this perfect image of heaven, one never seen until then, ejoyed greatly watching this, jus I didnt catch the name or anything. This is just a romantic, occassionaly funny, drama about two souls who consumate their marriage literally in "Heaven". Mike Shea, in his first life dies as a young man performing a heroic rescue. Shortly after arriving in "Heaven" he meets a new soul, Annie Packert, who has never lived on Earth before. The drama centers around their separation soon after being wedded and the burning question is whether they will reunite on Earth before time runs out or whether they are fated to eternal soul-searching.

    rubbish or trash?
    toilet or restroom?
    pram or baby carriage?
    trolley or cart?

    seems like at the end, we need to learn two languages insted of one.

    ONLY GOD KNOWS WHY

    I've been sittin' here
    Tryin' to find myself
    I get behind myself
    I need to rewind myself
    Lookin' for the payback
    Listen for the playback
    They say that every man bleeds just like me
    And now I feel like number one
    Yet I'm last in life
    I watch my younger son
    And it helps to pass the time
    I take too many pills to help to ease the pain
    I made a couple of dollar bills still I feel the same
    Everybody knows my name
    They say it way out loud
    A lot of folks fuck me
    It's hard to hang out in crowds
    I guess that's the price you pay
    To be some big shot like I am
    Outskirt stands and one night stands
    Still I can't find love

    And when your walls come tumbling down
    I will always be around
    And when your walls come tumbling down
    I will always be around

    People don't know about the things I say and do
    They don't understand about the shit that I've been through
    It's been so long since I've been home
    I've been gone, I've been gone for way too long
    Maybe I forgot all things I miss
    Oh somehow I know there's more to life than this
    I said it too many times
    And I still stand firm
    You get what you put in
    And people get what they deserve
    Still I ain't seen mine
    No I ain't seen mine
    I've been giving just ain't been gettin'
    I've been walking down that line
    So I think I'll keep on walking
    With my head held high
    I'll keep moving on and only God knows why

    GRANJAS DE SAN PABLO




    Se llamaba Cecilia, y todas esas mañanas llenas de viento, la veía al salir y observaba como se bendecía a si misma, talvez esperaba que pudiera volver a su casa y ver a su mama, aquella señora tenia cara de águila, al menos tenia siete años y eso era lo que veía en ella, la cuadra transversal que cortaba la cuadra no estaba pavimentada, en las noches se sentaba en sus piernas, y en su Renault 4 conducía por media hora durante esa cuadra, lloraba por el viento, no sabia que no veía, había una anciana vendiendo mamoncillos, un día supo que se murió y empezó a comprar helados en otra ruta, los caminos eran magníficos, tomaba media hora subir todas esas escaleras, las cuáles tenían pintados mensajes de navidad de hacia tres años, ir a donde el señor Luis López de Mesa por ese camino de miedo, pero que no sentía en ese entonces, encontró un hombre destrozado en su frente por un hacha, todos los niños miraban, nada cambio, es solo otro muerto, los niños corren con una llanta de bicicleta y un pedazo de madera, la envidia lo abrazaba, el no podía hacer lo mismo, los viernes a las 430 eran momentos felices, sucios hasta las 8, tirados en el piso con caminos imaginarios llenos de ríos y montañas. Vuelve 15 años después y la policía lo detiene, fotografiar para asesinar presumen.

    RIO DE JANEIRO




    Rio de Janeiro, a água é a tua bandeira, agita as suas cores, sopra e retine no vento, cidade, negra náiade, de claridade sem fim, de abrasadora sombra, de pedra com espuma é o teu tecido, o cadenciado balanço da tua rede marinha, o azul movimento
    dos teus pés areentos, o aceso ramo dos teus olhos.

    Rio, Rio de Janeiro, os gigantes salpicam a tua estátua com pontos de pimenta, deixaram na tua boca dorsos do mar, barbatanas perturbadoramente mornas, promontórios
    da fertilidade, tetas da água, declives de granito, lábios de ouro, e entre as pedras quebradas o sol marinho iluminando rutilantes espumas.

    Ó Beleza, ó cidadela de pele fosforescente, romã de carne azul, ó deusa tatuada em sucessivas ondas de ágata negra, da tua nua estátua um aroma de jasmim molhado se desprende, vem no suor, um ácido pegajoso de cafezais e de frutarias e pouco a pouco sob o teu diadema, entre a dupla maravilha dos teus seios, entre cúpula e cúpula da tua natureza aparece o dente da desgraça, a cancerosa cauda da miséria humana, nos montes leprosos o cacho inclemente das vidas, pirilampo terrível, esmeralda extraída
    do sangue, o teu povo estende-se até aos confins da selva num rumor abafado, passos e surdas vozes, migrações de esfomeados, escuros pés com sangue, o teu povo, para lá dos rios, na densa amazônia, esquecido, no Norte de espinhos, esquecido, com sede nos planaltos, esquecido, nos portos mordido pela febre, esquecido, à porta da casa de onde o expulsaram, pedindo-te apenas um olhar, esquecido.

    CARTAGENA DE INDIAS




    Dancing really hard in Cartagena, say. When I wake
    in the morning, a knife in my forehead, with low
    Low eyes like clouds over tableland and the expression
    Of a benevolent donkey, I check the dictionary.

    It means a book instead of a flowerpot. What a surprise!
    Offering tortilla espanola and refuge from sunshine,
    The old lady owner of the local, a long black cigarette
    tangled in her bony fingers. There are certain persons

    Who understand -nada- she says. Ni nada. I think:
    I've gone dancing in Cartagena. As a girl, bored
    Durng Minnesota summers, I stuffed bags in other bags,
    I filled things up. Monolingual, flat-chested, with no ideas

    About the weather. I can't tell you how much
    I've developed since then. She drums her fingers, while
    Her cigarette smokes like a signal fire. The bar fills up
    With those little puffs, signifying nothing, white noise

    And white noise, a strange weather with no wind
    Behind it. The beat of those fingers reminds me of --
    Nada. Ni nada. I'm illiterate today. So pleased.
    I've been dancing. I've really come a long way.

    ¿ACASO COLOMBIA SOLO HUELE A SANGRE?

    A qué huele la sangre, ¡será que huele a lo mismo que huele el agua!, agua en la cabeza de la amante, agua en la cacerola de quien no cocinará esta noche, por estar entretenido con la muerte.

    La sangre no huele cuando es limpia, el agua no huele cuando es limpia, en Colombia huele a sangre derramada y el agua de los ríos se ha vuelto picha, Colombia huele a palomas posadas en los techos de la guerra, Colombia huele a sexo reprimido, untado y barajado en tangos y rancheras, huele.

    El agua huele a sexo y Colombia huele a sexo, basta con mirar y ver (¿observar?) los millones de condones que flotan en las aguas del pestilente del río Bogotá, para confirmar que la sangre huele a sexo, ya que por las aguas de los ríos en Colombia bajan miles de cadáveres por año, alimentando los gallinazos que navegan en sus aguas.

    Colombia huele a arco iris, Colombia no huele a sopa, Colombia huele a guayaba y a mariposas amarillas, Colombia huele a gordas y gordos recién masacrados.

    Colombia huele a Montoya y millones de dólares, Colombia huele al Pibe y a rizos amarillos tinturados, huele a chocolate pasado por el video-sexo de Shakira, Colombia no huele a gallina amarilla calentada con un foco. Colombia ya casi no huele a ruana.

    Colombia olió a pino silvestre, a pachulí, a maíz, a cuca frondosa, Colombia ha empezado a oler a monóxido de carbono, a tóxicos, a humo malo y negro. Colombia tiene el aroma de la vida y tiene el aroma de la muerte, se ha perdido el olor de la fiesta, convertida en masacre permanente, Colombia huele a tumulto y religión, huela a zozobra, huele a miedo que asusta al propio olor de la metralla.

    En la zona rosa huele a pulmón cocido, el congreso huele a pólvora y tinta seca, que en el transporte público se concentran los olores reprimidos y saltan a la vista los deseos de arribar al día siguiente, huele a motel y sábanas y sueños, y angustia no poder oler el sol que casi ya ni huele.

    Colombia huele a espíritu callejero y libertario, huele a rumba y canto, huele a arte y carcajadas. Colombia huele a sociedad vespertina un poco rancia por las plumas del gallinero. Colombia huele a salsa, pueblo y muchedumbre. ¡Llegó el cólera! Colombia huele a río.

    Colombia es una maravilla de olor. El olor colombiano puede exportarse en frascos de poesía.

    DE POR DIOS...




    ENGLAND, GERMANY AND COLOMBIA, BEHIND THE CAMERA, SWEDEN AND IRAN.
    COMO TODOS LOS FINES DE SEMANA, BORRACHOS EN EL APARTAMENTO.
    MAMASANTA, PECATA Y CHUPAMEDIAS.
    DE PORQUE ELLA NUNCA LA DIJO QUE LO AMABA.
    DE PORQUE 2000 DOMINGOS LE PARECIERON UN CHISTE.
    DE PORQUE YA NO ENCUENTRO DIFERENCIA ENTRE HABLAR Y NO HABLAR.

    BUSCO UNA VIUDA VACANTE

    Busco una viuda vacante,
    sin importarme su estado,
    con un pisito amueblado,
    y en el banco mucha guita,
    y que pase la cuentita,
    a nombre de un servidor,
    por ahí con el nuevo amor,
    entra a jugar a la guerra,
    y se planta bajo tierra,
    con el marido anterior.

    Yo soy un hombre morocho,
    con unos ojos verdosos,
    cabello enredao, buen mozo,
    recien tengo treinta y siete,
    pa' el amor inteligente,
    tambien para la mujer,
    porque en cosas del querer,
    yo se ofrecer la ternura,
    y entregarme con dulzura,
    para rendirme a sus pies.

    Tengo salud para rato,
    duermo diez horas por dias,
    un bañito de agua fria,
    y desayuno completo,
    a las doce buen almuerzo,
    y despues de descansar,
    porque eso de trabajar,
    con el estomago lleno,
    me batieron que no es bueno,
    y hasta me puedo enfermar.

    Si alguien esta interesada,
    y quiere formar el nido,
    yo le brindo el apellido,
    en una forma galante,
    contestar "poste restante",
    casilla noventa y dos,
    a nombre de un soñador,
    para casarse al instante,
    con una viuda vacante,
    que este huerfana de amor.

    SINGING WITHOUT TROUBLE




    I spun a web, it's tangled up with me,
    And I lost my head,
    The thought of all the stupid things I said,
    O no what's this?
    A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle,
    I turned to run,
    The thought of all the stupid things I've done,

    O no I see,
    A spider web and it's me in the middle,
    So I twist and turn,
    Here I am in love in a bubble,

    Singing,

    They spun a web for me.

    CANNONBALL

    Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
    Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
    Still a little hard to say what's going on

    Still a little bit of your ghost your witness
    Still a little BIT of your face I haven't kissed
    You step a little closer EACH DAY
    Still I can't SAY what's going on

    Stones taught me to fly
    Love taught me to lie
    Life taught me to die
    So it's not hard to fall
    When you float like a cannonball

    Still a little bit of your song in my ear
    Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
    You step a little closer TO ME
    So close that I can't see what's going on

    Stones taught me to fly
    Love taught me to lie
    Life taught me to die
    So it's not hard to fall
    When you float like a cannon

    Stones taught me to fly
    Love taught me to cry
    So come on courage!
    Teach me to be shy
    'Cause it's not hard to fall
    And I don't WANNA scare her
    It's not hard to fall
    And I don't wanna lose
    It's not hard to grow
    When you know that you just don't know

    THIS IS COLOMBIA
