BEDBUG*
Bedbug,
white and golden,
you revived me
with your bites,
you gave life
to my existence
by putting
the pulse,
the rhythm of salsa,
into my heart.
Bedbug,
since that day,
my love,
the gears,
the pulleys,
connect me to you
in this dance
of our
human
presence.
Bedbug* translation of the Spanish word “vinchuca,” which means pest, insect or person who is demanding, difficult, annoying or tiresome.
