#poem, #art, Halloween!

Debo confesar que nunca me ha provocado ni motivado mucho esta festividad. Siempre me pareció un mal ejemplo para los críos, una reverenda tontería para los más grandes y algo kinki para los adultos que les gusta disfrazarse de, bueno, de lo que les de la gana. Me acuerdo haber salido con mis disfraces caseros cuando vivía en EEUU, a jugármela tocando en casas extrañas exigiendo truco o trato. Mare meua, quién sabe lo que podría salir de tras esas puertas trancadas en una ciudad tan peligrosa como Miami… Pero bueno, era Halloween y había que hacer lo que los demás hacían. Bueno, espero que este Halloween lo disfruteis al máximo y que os portéis bien que el proximo día es el día de los fieles difuntos y hay que ponerles una flor, si no podéis en la tumba, al menos hacedlo con en el pensamiento.

I must confess that I have never been very inspired or motivated by this holiday. It has always seemed to me like a bad example for young children, a complete nonsense for older ones, and somewhat kinki for adults who enjoy dressing up as, well, whatever they so desire. I remember going out with my homemade costumes when I lived in the U.S., risking it by knocking on strange doors demanding trick or treat. Goodness, who knows who could be behind those locked doors in such a dangerous city like Miami… But well, it was Halloween and you had to do what everyone else was doing. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this Halloween to the fullest. But behave yourselves because the next day is the Day of the Faithful Departed, and we must place a flower for them; if not at the grave, at least do it with a kind thought.

GRACIAS – CHEERS

  1. I love Halloween! It’s also my anniversary 😉 The wedding was fun because almost everyone was in costume. It also worked out because it was the pandemic, and everyone had to wear masks anyway 😜

      2. Thank you so much. In the capital city we were not greatly affected. The destruction was in the interior of the province. I greatly appreciate your concern and prayers. There are many now suffering.

    1. Happy Halloween Sir! Lamentably for us it is not too happy thinking of how many of our countrymen lost their lives two nights ago during the storms.
