They put security cameras in the town,
they nail the light poles
one-eyed insects
so that he watches with his crow's gaze
to the worker with pedals
to the teacher walking to school
to the kids who get together to fill the hours
unemployment, daily consumption of
colorful offers and frustrations,
They watch the people, so many cameras!
How much would they save if they watched
ministerial offices and public offices,
Agapes of 15 square meters where they fornicate the fate of the town.
Security cameras to see how the
neighborhood mutt pisses on the light post!
We, the Argentine people,
we should have in our homes
screens that show us what they are talking about
how they decide
what are they doing behind our backs
They, the camera installers:
They don't pedal
that they are not cold
who don't pay rent
They don't know what it's like to search in the cupboard
the can of peas that saves the day.
