More blackmail by the US regime:
#ANTIGUA: "We changed our position because we had a call from the State Department advising us that they’re making progress in the negotiations and if we supported Cuba, that it would undermine the negotiations, so we changed our position,” Browne said.

Your gaze? Your gaze
is the most perfect way
to say everything, everything,
even though you haven't said a word.
What magic do you hold,
what beautiful, profound power?
Your gaze, in a single second,
plants a year's worth of cravings in me,
and when you close…
(RENAEL GONZÁLE)
¿Tu mirada? Tu mirada
es el más perfecto modo
de decirlo todo, todo,
aunque no hayas dicho nada.
¿Qué magia tienes guardada,
qué poder bello y profundo?
Tu mirada en un segundo
me siembra un año de antojos
y cuando cierras los ojos
se queda sin luz el mundo.
(RENAEL GONZÁLEZ)
