Bird on the Wire - Fotografía en blanco y negro tomada en Valencia en junio de 2011
"Like a bird on the wire
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free
Like a worm on a hook
Like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee
If I, if I have been unkind
I hope that you can just let it go by
If I, if I have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you
Oh, like a baby, stillborn
Like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me
But I swear by this song
And by all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch
He said to me, "You must not ask for so much"
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door
She cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"
Oh, like a bird on the wire
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free"
Bird on the Wire, por Leonard Cohen (Songs from a Room, 1969)

qué bueno Cohen... ya sabes que me pierdo con las líneas... con las traviesas surcadas del cielo que atraviesan la composición, por eso me gustan tus fotos de arquitectura pero esta me ha conquistado y ya con las letras que le has puesto ni te cuento...
Mi primera vocación fue la arquitectura, un poco mediatizado por mis padres que buscaban una salida seria y lucrativa a mi habilidad para dibujar
