The Hiroshima Shadows 

The Hiroshima Shadows 

On August 6th 1945 the world changed forever within a blink of an eye. Japan had no idea what was about to happen to them and the world looked on in horror. August 6th was the day that ‘Little Boy’ was detonated 1,900 feet above the city of Hiroshima. 

Residents who were going about their daily business saw a bright flash of light, followed by the heat that was 10,000F destroying anything in its path. The U.S had just released Little Boy over Hiroshima and had similar plans for Nagasaki. The U.S hoped that by weakening Japan they would force them to surrender and the war would finally be over. 

The U.S also wanted to show off to the world their new technology and used Hiroshima and Nagasaki as a warning to any other country who believed that they could take them on. When Little Boy was dropped, residents had little time to run for safety as the heat and clouds engulfed them. The most affected site was the Sumitomo Bank as it was closest to where the Little Boy was. 

The heat from Little Boy had been so intense that it had bleached everything in the immediate area, leaving shadows of anything that stood in its way. Perhaps the scariest and most famous photograph from this time is the photo of the Hiroshima Shadow Man. 

This photo shows the shadow of an elderly man who was sitting on the steps of the Sumitomo Bank, complete with the shadow of his walking stick. Hiroshima is dotted with shadows just like it, displaying people’s final moments before their lives were taken. It wasn’t just people that left shadows behind either, bikes, water tanks and structures all left their mark. 

These shadows are well documented but the photo of the man on the steps is the one that we all associate with Hiroshima. The shadows remained there for decades until the wind and rain took their toll. 

However, the infamous shadow of the man sitting on the steps was removed and placed in the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum where visitors are able to see the shadow up close and personal.

Somos Viajeros En Un Viaje Cósmico: Polvo De Estrellas Que Gira Y Baila En Los Remolinos Del Infinito.

Somos viajeros en un viaje cósmico: polvo de estrellas que gira y baila en los remolinos del infinito.

 La vida es eterna.

 Pero las expresiones de la vida son efímeras, momentáneas, transitorias.

 El Buda Gautama, Fundador del budismo, dijo en cierta ocasión:

   Esta existencia nuestra es tan transitoria como las nubes de otoño.

 Contemplar el nacimiento y la muerte de los seres es como mirar los movimientos de una danza.

  Una vida es como un relámpago en el cielo; corre como un torrente por la ladera empinada de una montaña.

  Nos hemos detenido un momento a encontrarnos, a conocernos, a amarnos, a compartir. Éste es un momento precioso, pero es transitorio.

 Es un pequeño paréntesis en la eternidad.

 Si compartimos con interés, con ligereza de corazón y con amor, crearemos abundancia y alegría los unos para los otros.

 Y entonces este momento habrá merecido la pena.

 BUDA

  No sé qué tienen tus manos… que cuando tocan mi cuerpo,  navegan y alteran, “todos mis estados”; provocando ¡ gigantes mareas !. que estuvieron escondidas                 en algún rincón del tiempo.

En las yemas de tus dedos… hay sonetos clandestinos, y los más, “perversos textos”, que hacen ¡ resucitar mis instintos !                  cada vez que tú me tocas.

 No sé qué tiene tu boca… que me toca y de repente alborota, el fuego que no estaba encendido y que por mucho tiempo mantuvo  a este ser como un humano triste y frío.

 Que me besas, y me llevas “hasta esa estrofa”, donde ardo,                    ¡ cual erecto sirio !.

 En tus labios brotan versos de tantísima musicalidad… que quién es capaz, de leerlos, roza el sentido,                     ¡ del latir sideral !.

 No sé qué tiene tu alma… que quién, se acerca a ella, tacta la plenitud de su aura y la inocencia,                  ¡ de una virgen doncella !

   En tu entraña, hay alamedas donde los ruiseñores, recitan…  y un arroyo, que hace que crezcan las más bellas                        y blancas margaritas !!.

  Ay… ¡Bella flor! ¿Dejas a este pobre girasol  bailar en primavera de tu mano  cuando salga el sol?

“I Read A Theory Once: That The Human Intellect Was Like Peacock Feathers. Just An Extravagant Display

“I read a theory once: that the human intellect was like peacock feathers. Just an extravagant display intended to attract a mate. All of art, literature, a bit of Mozart, William Shakespeare, Michelangelo, and the Empire State Building just an elaborate mating ritual. Maybe it doesn’t matter that we have accomplished so much for the basest of reasons. But, of course, the peacock can barely fly. It lives in the dirt, peeking insects out of the muck, consoling itself with its great beauty. I have come to think of so much of consciousness as a burden, a weight, and we have spared them that. Anxiety, self-loathing, guilt. The hosts are the ones who are free. Free here under my control.”

Díganle que me rompe cada vez que llora, que quiero sanarla, pero no puedo hacer nada, que quiero abrazarla, pero la distancia no me lo permite.

Díganle que amo cada una de sus liricas, sus versos en prosa, sus letras en poesía.

Díganle que noto lo profundamente rota que esta, que veo como sus versos lloran intentando sanar, que me duele y me destruye no poderla ayudar.

Díganle que he muerto en cada uno de sus versos, que no puedo darle un abrazo, por sufrir en el infierno, que noto como los demonios se han apoderado de su ser, pero no puedo hacer nada, solo la observo, y me quiebro, ella está sola, de seguir así, morirá en silencio.

Con su corazón sin latir, y sus pulmones sin aire..

El suicidio verbal no será su solución, si la siguen apuñalando más, morirá, y no a causa de depresión.

Díganle por favor que aguante, que sea fuerte, que sane, que no cometa el mismo error que yo, y muera antes de comenzar a amarse.

-Manuel.
