For Laura Isabel Feldman 

Laura Isabel Feldman was held in a secret detention center named El Vesubio and murdered by the Argentine military regime in 1978. She was the leader of the branch of the revolutionary Peronist party in her high school and was eighteen years old.

I want to carry in my womb 
The bodies of the dead women 
Killed by the dictatorship
My womb
Full of old pictures with their serrated sides
Full of vaporous language
Full of gardens in child's mind
My womb will grow like a giant piñata 
So full of insurrections
And you'll fear them all
