Elish

-by Miguel Hernández Muñoz-

When we finally decided to go on this trip, a thrill as anguished as it was orgasmic coursed through my body. I had time to assimilate it. I prepared myself physically and mentally. I planned every stage of what would be my most ambitious project. Unforeseen events arose that changed the plans, but the illusion remained intact. The end justified everything. The day of departure came almost unexpectedly. I had already prepared my rucksack some time before. We took it easy, enjoyed ourselves in privacy. The easy and pleasant stages became hard and stormy. Then came the first pains that did not stop despite the painkillers. "Keep going, keep going, keep going," they told me. Everything gets complicated just before the summit. Fears, insecurity and helplessness set in. No, it can't be, after so much time, after so much preparation. Help, please. It's here, it's here. My child. This GR has only just begun.
