[From Colombia's celebrated poet, Raúl Henao of Medellin, here's another poem in Spanish, accompanied by its English translation, both from Raúl's La vida a la carta or Life a la carte.]
El poeta
ese hombrecito sudoroso que
corre
tras la gente
para soplarle fuego al
oído. ##

The
poet
that
sweaty little man who runs
behind people
blowing
fire into their ears.
(Translated by Philip West)
