JONH As Borges: "The rubbing of the years erodes the works of men, but paradoxically forgives some whose theme is dispersion and transience.


   It was a noon in December. We had lunch in the hostels of the Medical School in STGO of Cuba. I went up to my bedroom and started reading the Granma newspaper, and there was the big news.
   It was a small box on inside pages "Murdered the English musician John Lennon by a gunman. Again the blood runs in capitalism "
  And that was all. Intermingled with news of the sugarcane harvest record in the quagmire of the zapata swamp, where the crocodiles were highly appreciated by the Central Committee for its sweet meat.
   Not a photo of the murdered singer, composer and Protestant for the wars.
   So it was that Fidel Castro paid tribute to the great figure of John Lennon. A speck in a newspaper of national circulation.
   Celia Sánchez Manduley, who was not even known in the Isle of Pines, Castro's adulteresses erected a mausoleum in Manzanillo, not that she did not deserve it, since she was "good", they says.
   My fellow student, Dr. E. B. de Guantánamo, where the radio and television broadcasts of the American Naval Base arrived, asked me:
  _ What do you think about Lennon's death? -I answered with sadness.
  _ It has been a shocking news. Now I'm going to lock myself inside my mosquito net to mourn his death silently.
   In the 2000s, Fidel Castro decided to remember the past and ordered a statue of John Lennon sitting on a bench to be erected in Havana.

    The first thing that the town did or a citizen fuck was stealing the famous glasses to the statue.

AHORA VOY A ENCERRARME DENTRO DE MI MOSQUITERO.

Como Jorge LUIS  Borges: "El roce de los años desgasta las obras de los hombres, pero perdona paradójicamente algunas cuyo tema es la dispersión y la fugacidad."-
  _ ¿Qué te parece eso de la muerte de Lennon? –Yo le respondí con tristeza.
  _ Ha sido una noticia estremecedora. Ahora voy a encerrarme dentro de mi mosquitero a llorar en silencio su muerte.ORLANDO


    LA MUERTE  DE JONH LENNON  Y EL DIARIO GRAMMA

   Era un mediodía de Diciembre. Almorzábamos  en los albergues de la Facultad de Medicina en STGO de Cuba. Yo subí a mi dormitorio y empecé a leer  el periódico Granma, y ahí estaba la gran noticia.
   Era un pequeño recuadro en páginas interiores “Asesinado el músico inglés John Lennon por un pistolero.  De nuevo corre la sangre en el capitalismo”
  Y eso  era todo. Entremezclado con noticias del record de la zafra cañera en el lodazal de la ciénaga de zapata, donde los cocodrilos eran muy apreciados por el comité Central por su carne dulce.
   Ni una foto del asesinado cantante, compositor y protestante por las guerras.
   Así fue que Fidel Castro homenajeó a la gran figura de John Lennon. Una manchita en un periódico de circulación nacional.
   A Celia Sánchez Manduley que ni la conocían en Islas de Pinos los adulones de Castro le erigieron un mausoleo en Manzanillo, no es que no lo mereciera, pues era “buena” según dice.
   MI compañero de carrera, el Dr. E. B. de Guantánamo, donde sí llegaban las emisiones radiales y televisivas de la Base Naval Americana me preguntó:
  _ ¿Qué te parece eso de la muerte de Lennon? –Yo le respondí con tristeza.
  _ Ha sido una noticia estremecedora. Ahora voy a encerrarme dentro de mi mosquitero a llorar en silencio su muerte.
   En los años 2000 a Fidel Castro le dio por recordar el pasado y mandó a erigir en la Habana una estatua de John Lennon sentado en un banco.

    Lo primero que hizo el pueblo o un jodedor de la ciudadanía fue robarle los famosos espejuelos a la estatua.

MARIELA CASTRO ESPIN AND DIAZ-CANEL: THE ASEXUADA CASTRIST AND THE PRESIDENT REPEATER.

MARIELA CASTRO ESPIN AND DIAZ-CANEL: THE ASEXUADA CASTRIST AND THE PRESIDENT REPEATER.
Image result for mariela castro espin diaz-canel

  Apparently Dr. Mariela Castro Espín has been silenced lately. She no longer makes those delusional statements about SOCIALISM and the new experiences they have brought. The `people, who apparently have no alternative but to swallow their tongues as if they constituted a mass of ignorant people - "Where are the intellectuals who think for themselves and who aren't fooled by populist speeches anymore?” ¿Are they affraid for a change?

 The idea of the rulers - especially the late Fidel - for the peole who are tired of hunger and deprivation even before the blockade worsened.

  In the face of other alternative information, the people have to take off the boring round tables where the same thing is repeated over and over again.

  As the newspaper Granma published an article there at the beginning of the 90s. "A true Communist does not make mistakes" that even raised some lukewarm criticism from some revolutionary journalists. An opportunistic outcast who wanted to be more communist than Marx himself. 

  And you, Mariela, deceiving us that the construction of socialism is nothing more than "simple experiments". But until when are they going to be deceiving a part of the people who have lived from the benefactor state in exchange for their freedom and who don't want a true liberation?

  Now it seems that you are silent or they sent you to moderate your statements. You shadowed President Diaz-Canel himself and took center stage before the people. Uncreative the Chief - hand-put, not by popular choice - that only repeats phrases of the delirious commander in chief who has plunged the once prosperous island in a calamitous essay of failed communism. Even when?

   And the bad administration continues to wreak havoc among the second-hand leaders and the administrators of the poor wealth of the people.

  Already the people apparently in silence will raise their loud voice in protest against the annihilation of a population that doesn't have access to the CUC or the dollar.

  They have kidnapped Jose Marti, the real one, in a Martian Studies Center, while not presenting his writings on the true freedom and image he had against tyrants and his appreciation of American society with its capitalist dynamics.

  Martí belongs to all Cubans, those inside and outside. Don't monopolize him and make him a posthumous member of the CCP. 

  Martí would not like that reproach. Let students know the whole truth, not to turn to Facebook to find alternative information. No. The true José Marti. our great patriot.

  Mariela, princess heiress of Castroism and Diaz-Canel, measure well your statements that the people are already tired and the free countries too. 

 It's just a matter of time. History will not absolve you
