Recuerdo a Maried fumando rojos, blancos, robando cigarros para compartir conmigo, googleando las reglas de scrabble y tenemos fr铆o.
No puedo regresar a mi casa y me gast茅 mi dinero en ya no se que. Me lleva a su cocina, lava un plato y calienta tamales jarochos.
Me cuenta de su mam谩, su pap谩, el horrible novio de su mam谩, llora un poco, me habla de los vatos con los que coje, ninguno le gusta, todos le prometen algo menos dejar a sus novias. Act煤a por impulso, no parece atarse a nada, ama a sus amigas, sus vicios, los juegos de mesa y los vestidos largos.
A veces se tira al suelo para sacar sus alas, no siempre obtiene resultado. Es dif铆cil saber en que piensa y c贸mo formula sus oraciones. Su acento se mezcla con el ingl茅s canadiense y no llega a ninguna conclusi贸n. Me deja quedarme en su cuarto, ni ella ni yo sabemos que hacer de nuestras vidas, no pensamos a futuro, queremos una vida r谩pida, honesta, leal y seguir bailando.
Ha comenzado a mentirme, si se droga ahora es un secreto, con quien sale y tiene sexo. Le gusta mi amigo pero lo que quiere es algo seguro, fuera de la pir谩mide y sus paredes amarillas todas estamos perdidas.
Lo inoportuna que alguna vez agrad贸 ahora le complica la existencia. Se alejan por problem谩tica y la vuelvo a ver llorar, se arrepiente, quiere cambiar pero pronto se le olvida todo al exhalar. Sigue siendo divertida cuando no est谩 en abstinencia y se muestra sincera.
Ya no la quieren juntar, me habla para sacar plan y ya estoy en uno, uno donde no es bienvenida y me siento mal.
Las personas que lastiman se reducen a unas cuantas, casualmente unidas entre ellas.
Su nombre ahora genera morbo por saber que le ocurre, donde est谩, por qu茅 y con quien.
Act煤a como una ni帽a, es una canci贸n de Lana del Rey. Sabe que no entiendo socializar, me defiende de los vatos y se pelea con uno con tal de que nadie me toque.

Something is happening in M茅xico麓s art world
The contemporary argentine artist Ana Gallardo exhibited a piece at the University Museum of Contemporary Art (MUAC) in M茅xico. The exhibition, titled "Tembl贸 ac谩 un delirio", featured the work Extracto de un Proyecto Fallido , where Gallardo visited Casa Xochiquetzal, a shelter in Tepito for elderly sex workers in vulnerable situations. The controversial piece consisted of a large wall where she wrote about her experience going to the house, where she was asked to care for one of the residents in a deplorable state, written with slurs and derogatory language toward the shelter, the sex workers, and Estela, the woman she "cared" for. The text is dehumanizing, degrading, and, to top it off, she projects a video where she caresses Estela's hands, as if she were a religious figure holding a sick child for a photo-op. We don鈥檛 know, and the most probable answer is no, if Estela consented to have her image used in such a vile and cruel manner.
The most foolish people try to defend these atrocities by saying it's art, claiming it opens up a conversation, or that it qualifies as art because it generates a reaction, in this case, a disgusting one. Humans feel and react to all stimuli in more or less conscious ways, of course injustice generates a reaction, as do crimes, but that doesn鈥檛 make them art. Not everything that happens in a museum is art, and just because a video is projected doesn鈥檛 make it a work of art, no matter how much it's accompanied by curatorial text. It is not art, it is abuse.
In the wake of the exhibit, there were protests at the museum, demanding respect for sex workers and calling for an end to discrimination. The piece has since been removed, and the museum remains closed, likely to avoid further protests. The exhibition has been permanently removed down and the museum has not yet issued an apology after the scandal, but why let it get to that point? Who authorized this exhibit? Did they not read the supposed work, which is nothing more than a message of hatred and contempt? How much more can we exploit a person鈥檚 suffering and agony, displaying them in their most fragile condition just to provoke shock and hide behind the rhetoric of contemporary art?
