Exceptional times require extraordinary responses, in the sense of out of the ordinary and habitual. For this reason I have decided to open this new blog:
Handmade.
Weaving words during the quarantine
Handmade. Because we have witnessed how, even in rich countries, with Corporations wealthier than entire nations, with billionaires who do not know in which of their N properties and yachts they will be quarantined, with advanced technologies like never before in human history... even in these countries our doctors, nurses, and all health care personnel have had to resort to the generosity of ordinary people, who have hand-made masks and other security items and donated them.
Handmade, because in these times when resources are scarce, we must start creating and building with our hands a better future for all.
Here I will have mine and otherswritings that have been inspired during the quarantine.
My first language is Spanish and my poems are translated by myself. I know that they could be poorly translated and I apologized for that, but I cannot let the language be a barrier. Please let me know if you see mistakes.
