• This time I succumb to the magical world classic Simon Nelson, Cuban poet born in 1965.
• This brilliant writer offers an extraordinary journey to ancient Rome through "Ragazzo" and this is because the hand of this young, brazen, delineated, balanced proportion of forms and volumes, we find the perfect lines of classicism .
• But it is a trip to marble, to the perfection of the statue, but a brazen escape prohibited, uninhibited forms within which we have referred to the monuments and admired in their stillness.
• Ragazzo, friends, is the temple made flesh, The Temple of the Sibyl, into which Nelson Simon is the lips of the boys who entertained the Colosseum at night with the vibration of your body. and we, the readers, we saw the earthquake and the shaking of divination oracle.
• Ragazzo is the current desire of those who love meat wise, educated, loved by the gods.
• Mix bold and peep of flesh and body, class and work in their eyes, his chest, his belly button, on the birth of the Roman Empire's key in their stunning legs and in his hands, which were able to endure the mirror of the centuries.
• I hope you enjoy the trip to the construction of the world, the ecstasy of the beauty of the desire of the hand of a young man who crosses time, call Adriano, Fabrizio, Giuseppe, or Giuliano ...
• Save ragazzo!

• Lost in meaningless conversation holding the tourists tired of admiring the ravages of time makes the meat powder and stone silence, I sat on a bench to see how afternoon down to the Trastevere. With it, wrapped in swaddling clothes, was my soul, and some wishful thinking as the country they had come. (By then he had understood that the island will always grieve as a thistle, which, poor, are entrenched in our chest.)

• sunburnt Mediterranean
• that drag the ragazzi.
Angel Ramiro Sánchez
• The ragazzo sat beside me on the single bank of Piazza Venezia, and the city of Rome, until then only the splendor of ruins and dreams, was another suddenly. Had the mystery and glamor that I had imagined for her.

• You spoke and I barely understand,
• to reach out, strong as the bridges that cross,
• inviting me to walk,
• next afternoon when we descended to the Trastevere.

• always within the pale, seductive grip of death.
