¿CÓMO HACER UNA REVOLUCIÓN SIN UN CARRO?
Written by Martha Luisa Hernández Cadenas Visually interpreted by Iván Casís Jr.
English translation:
How to make a Revolution without a car?
I want to break a car Destroy it as a tiny ant on the map But I don’t have a car Maybe I can break my parents’ car Cut it into many pieces and eat it and think about the indigestion caused by those plastic, metal, and glass pieces that this suspicious car gives to my ideologized heart But my parents don’t have a car My grandparents don’t have a car either
**I need to break, to kill, to demolish this imaginary car, this impossible car in an anonymous accident maybe **Somebody tells me about an accident A car kills many people on the street Is the car guilty of murder? Is the car a super killer automaton?! Is the car a student protest? I need to put an end to the life of this invisible car Which is looking into my eyes Which is inside the plating Which is taking the best of me By shooting into my heart as an empty island with only one car A death Maybe they say Heimat Maybe they say Viva Cuba Libre Maybe they say BREAK ME I DON'T WANNA BE A CAR ANYMORE.
