Humans able to control their own destinies and freedoms,
Religion and technology amalgamated.
With only one, one hand,
Climbing the ladder and balancing our world.
Painting reality, painting history, and painting the future,
All in one, and one in all.
A Mexican painter,
A Mexican pride,
A Mexican parade,
And always the Mexican history.
A muralistic Renaissance created by him,
With other artists, as well.
Together as one, drawing the reality,
Diego Rivera and David Alfaro Siqueiros.
Combining colors for him,
Creating visual history with him,
Painting and drawing world heritages,
Throughout the country but visible in Guadalajara.
I was there;
In the Hospicio Cabañas,
In the Governmental Palace,
Decorating Mexican hallways and walls, with the hope of educating.
And one day,
In one painting,
There I was, killing and killed.
“Forever remember and never forgotten”, he once told me.
