La Casa de Nada (Los Cedros)

she’s waiting for father to bring home the bacon
he’s angry and tired, a high voltage wire
rusty as a nail
hungry as a whale
no dinner to calm his storm

he’s waiting for mother who’s lost in a novel
she’s full of desire, a gasoline fire
fully hypnotized
senses mesmerized
one thousand miles away from here

nobody at home here

they’re waiting for something to end all their waiting
la casa is empty, two strangers, de nada

nobody at home anymore
giving up, given up
