notion 64.
tell a little lie
for the whole world to start dreaming,
but becomes dogma.

notion 65.
and a bang
fell against
my brain.
i do not know
how to feel real.
i do not know
how i got here.
i do not know.
i do not know.
and with a bang,
my mind went blank.
i do not know,
but
can’t stop thinking,
so pass a pill,
so i can sleep,
and try
to forget.
tomorrow,
i will try again,
and probably fail.
i do not know.
it just goes on.

notion 66.
i was born
in a melting pot,
so my insides
were meant to rot.
and when the water
started boiling,
ingredients went
overflowing.

notion 67.
hay muchas palabras
que busca la gente
para explicar
lo que esta pasando,
para entender
lo que se ha olvidado.
hay muchas palabras,
muchas más personas
como para explicar,
como para entender
antes
que se pierda todo.

notion 65 and 66 amazing! Loved the melting pot analogy! and I found notion 65 to be very relatable. Great stuff!

I’m just curious to why you separate them with notions? I’ve never seen that before

These poems are all from a particular series (my third book). As I was traveling one summer, I was writing short pieces in the different places I was staying. Since they were mostly random thoughts, I called each poem, Notions. The book is also titled, Notions. Thanks for the question.

“To understand what has been forgotten.” I like that (I hope I translated it correctly).
