In the poems of Sand Drawings, we are before a soul that vibrates to the rhythm of the universe, and gives us finely crafted verses that show an important mastery of the word […] the life-death opposition; the constant contradiction that defines us, or rather, that leaves us to languish forever undefined. Víctor Hugo Hidalgo Ruiz expresses his disappointment at a world in perpetual catastrophe; a world in which there is no paradise; only the wait for it.

BIG BANG

(Fragment)

There is an eternal dispute

—the need to be right

is older than any universe—

resentful believers

unshakeable atheists

everyone disputes the truth

like the last atom of carrion

God blew up a former world

Didn’t they know it?

[…]

Don’t they know his pyromaniac inclinations?

Isn’t He all light?

Sometimes a comet passes by and we make a wish

it is a butt that God

throws when he reflects about his failures
