Los Falsos Secretos de la Muerte
By Mario Martz
La muerte: una niña
perdida en Madrid,
— es ingenua, tierna
y melancólica.
No sabe perdonar
pero dice estar enamorada
del chico que simula
morir en las cursivas líneas
de este poema.
No comprendo el porqué
del empeño
de los hombres malos, piensa
y casi sin fuerza
se envuelve en las sábanas
de una camilla
cuando escucha en la radio
la noticia de una mujer asesinada
en Ciudad Juárez.
En este suburbio rural
no se escuchan noticias como éstas, advierte.
Hay noches en que sonríe a la tristeza
— le avergüenza admitirlo —
pero no es ella quien sufre,
sino la niña de la televisión
que fue violada por su padre.
Esta vez
no seré humana con ellos, vacila.
Se toma un vaso con agua
y con las manos a ciegas
en los bolsillos de su overol
emprende su nuevo camino.
Mañana será otra niña muerta
y la mano que la invocó
será el homicida prófugo
de la página en blanco.

Inside Giza’s Great Pyramid, Scientists Discover a Void
Using a technique from particle physics, researchers detected a 100-foot-long space within the monument, but Egyptologists questioned the discovery’s value.http://www.touregypt.net/egyptmuseum/egyptian_museumk1.htm
"Hany Helal,
who is also a co-director of the ScanPyramids project, responded to the
criticism, saying that from an engineering perspective, it would not
make sense to have such a big void above the Gallery if its purpose was
to relieve pressure.
He
said the next steps are to have an international discussion with
archaeologists to figure out the structure’s purpose. In the future, he
added that scientists may use drones to explore the void once they have
more information about it.
“We are sure there is a void,” he said. “Now let us continue our research.”"
