“Viceversa"
Tengo miedo de verte
necesidad de verte
esperanza de verte
desazones de verte
tengo ganas de hallarte
preocupación de hallarte
certidumbre de hallarte
pobres dudas de hallarte
tengo urgencia de oírte
alegría de oírte
buena suerte de oírte
y temores de oírte
o sea
resumiendo
estoy jodido
y radiante
quizás más lo primero
que lo segundo
y también
viceversa.”

The response wasn't much more than an embarrassed murmur. "Mr Fuckup."
"I CAN'T HEAR YOU! WHO ARE WE NO' AT HOME TO?"
Better this time: "Mr Fuckup."
"ONE MORE TIME!"
They bellowed it out: "WE ARE NOT AT HOME TO MR FUCKUP!"
"Damn right we're no'." She smiled, nodded. "Now get out there and catch me those bloody killers.”
