Your travel left a deep impression, heartfelt, moving.
I grew up with songs and poems of this great woman.
sang, danced, I laughed, I thought, I am excited, the conveyed (to my people and alumnitos), I cried, I came to believe I lived. Analía
Pascana. January 2011

As the cicada
So many times I killed him,
many times I died, but I am here
resurrected. I thank
misery and hand with dagger
because it killed me so bad,
and kept singing.
Singing in the sun like the cicada
after a year under the ground, like survivor
returning from the war.
So many times I deleted, so
disappeared, my own funeral
was alone and crying. I
knotted handkerchief
but I forgot after that was not the only time, and returned
singing.
many times you were killed, resurrected
many, many nights spend
desperate.
At the time of the wreck
and the darkness
rescue someone to go singing.
María Elena Walsh
