Streams and Mountains

Titleless Mythology
The wind carries
My love away
My tears navigate now the river
Not the strongest hurricane
Disturbs the mountain
Therefore I have anchored myself to the summit
Not anymore,
Now I want to dissolve
In the wind, to melt
Down into the river, to embrace
With my body the world
But so long is the world
And so short are my arms
That I pretend to be the proud
King of my mountain
All about this I want
To tell you but my tongue
Is so heavy, so heavy
Is my heart
In my chest, my feet
Are stuck and my liver
Is open and bleeding.
I have consumed my nature
In the fire of being human
And now every night my liver is open
For the eagle to enter
And devour me again


Our First Artistic Collaboration - a book of Pablo's poetry and Anya's art (coming out soon)
Titleless Mythology had its beginning when Anya said it was a shame the only way to preserve Pablo's poetry was to gather the napkins, scraps of odd paper, and notebook sheets that he had had in his hands when the inspiration to write came on, before he lost them.
Pablo's poetry deals with themes of mythology, nature, and the conflicts of the human condition. While Pablo read and reread each poem, Anya meditated on the meaning of each without moving, until an image was formed in her mind. Only then would she paint her impressions, in just a few spontaneous brushstrokes.
