Miguel James

“Contra la policía/Against the PoliceMy entire Oeuvre is against the policeIf I write a Love poem it’s against the policeAnd if I sing the nakedness of bodies I sing against the policeAnd if I make this Earth a metaphor I make a metaphor against the policeIf I speak wildly in my poems I speak against the policeAnd if I manage to create a poem it’s against the policeI haven’t written a single word, a verse, a stanza that isn’t against the policeAll my prose is against the policeMy entire OeuvreIncluding this poemMy whole OeuvreIs against the police.”
