Versión en Español

Hoy despierte con una rara sensación, misma que se llega a experimentar cuando se tiene los sentidos alterados, que hacen que te sientas desorientado sin poder reconocer inmediatamente el lugar en donde te encuentras; con un mal sabor de boca, visión un tanto borrosa, y cuerpo pesado. Además, me encontraba levemente sudoroso a pesar del clima agradable que se siente dentro de la habitación. Y el silencio abrumador haría pensar a cualquiera que el ambiente hubiese sido propicio para tener un sueño placentero, cosa que no lo era sino todo lo contrario, y eso es algo que fui recordando a medida de que iba recobrando la razón para poder dar con la explicación del por qué no lo fue.
Traté de hacer un esfuerzo mental por recordar lo sucedido mientras dormía, en el que empece a plantearme una serie de preguntas y juegos con imágenes al azar que me permitiesen asociar posibles escenarios y personajes dentro del sueño.
De manera repentina recordé cosas como el color verde. Plantas. Cielo. Sol brillante. Tranquilidad. Soledad. Cosas así que daban forma a un lugar. También recordé que únicamente podía ver mis manos y pies. Y que sentía la necesidad de tener que buscar algo que no tenia del todo claro y que debía de hallarlo a como diera lugar.
Comencé a dar mis primeros pasos, en que tras un tiempo que no sabría calcular, me di a la tarea de indagar por el sitio.
Al adentrarme mas y mas en la profundidad del bosque empece a oír un sonido que se hacia sentir por todos lados. Algo ensordecedor pero a la vez suave, con una frecuencia que empezaba con notas bajas, altas y bajas; todo esto en breves segundos. Se repetía a cada instante. Mi oído estaba alerta. Una vez que logre orientarme seguí mi camino. Y al avanzar cada vez mas el sonido se hacia fuerte. Me encontraba alerta ante lo que podría pasar a mi alrededor, tanto así que, empece a ver a cierta distancia una criatura que se desplazaba de una lado a otro, lenta y torpemente.
Yo, al dar por fin con lo que sentía que debía de buscar, comencé a correr para acercarme de una vez ante esa extraña criatura. Y al estar cerca, me di cuenta de que era una especia de ave, y digo especie de ave porque a pesar de sus características, esta tenia una cabeza que cuyas dimensiones era semejantes al de un balón de fútbol americano. Sus patas, mismas que posee un ave, eran del doble de las de una persona promedio. Lo único diferente era su cuerpo, su interior que se salia de lo convencional, que estaba formado de una manera parecida a un resorte, un espiral que daba vueltas una y otra vez, tanto que llegaba a producir hipnosis al mirarlo fijamente.
El animal se comportaba tranquilamente, no me tenia miedo, mas bien daba la impresión de que me acercara mas. Hasta me observaba fijamente. Ya no emitía sonido alguno. Ya no hay mas sonido. No hay mas nadie salvo nosotros dos. Lo que me hacia sentir un poco confiado pero a la vez con muchas expectativas con lo que habría de pasar, mas porque dentro de mi debía de hacer algo, y ese algo era que me impulsaba a tener que no solo observar ese vórtice que, mostraba colores brillantes, hermosos y fuertes.
La hipnosis me gano. No lograba pensar. Tan solo miraba sin parpadear, mas porque eso me revelaba cosas que ya no lograba describir, elementos que nunca había visto antes, y que me generaba mucha inquietud.
Todo era hermoso y fascinante. Un mundo totalmente nuevo para mi al que quiera entrar. Y eso era lo que decidí hacer al levantar mi mano y tocar con mis dedos su cuerpo – si es que puede definir así- , a ese ventanal que me conduciría a un lugar desconocido.
Fui introduciéndome poco a poco a pesar de los nervios, y fue en ese momento en que mi cuerpo y mi conciencia comenzaba a cambiar totalmente, como si todo mi ser se desajustara y cambiara de apariencia para adoptar una nueva.
Se daba inicio a mi transmutación. Un proceso que pasaba de la oscuridad hacia la luz.

English Version

Today I woke up with a strange sensation, the same that you get to experience when you have altered senses, which make you feel disoriented without being able to immediately recognize the place where you are; with a bad taste in my mouth, blurred vision, and a heavy body. In addition, I was slightly sweaty despite the pleasant climate inside the room. And the overwhelming silence would make anyone think that the environment would have been conducive to have a pleasant sleep, which it was not but quite the opposite, and that is something that I was remembering as I was coming to my senses to find the explanation of why it was not.
I tried to make a mental effort to remember what happened while I slept, in which I began to ask myself a series of questions and play with random images that would allow me to associate possible scenarios and characters in the dream.
Suddenly I remembered things like the color green. Plants. Sky. Bright sun. Tranquility. Solitude. Things like that that shaped a place. I also remembered that I could only see my hands and feet. And that I felt the need to have to look for something that was not entirely clear to me and that I had to find it by any means possible.
I began to take my first steps, and after a time that I could not calculate, I began to investigate the site.
As I went deeper and deeper into the forest, I began to hear a sound that could be felt everywhere. Something deafening but at the same time soft, with a frequency that started with low, high and low notes; all this in a few seconds. It repeated itself every instant. My ear was alert. Once I got my bearings, I continued on my way. And as I advanced more and more, the sound became louder and louder. I was alert to what could happen around me, so much so that, I began to see at some distance a creature that moved from one side to another, slowly and awkwardly.
When I finally found what I felt I had to look for, I began to run to get closer to that strange creature. And when I was close, I realized that it was a kind of bird, and I say kind of bird because in spite of its characteristics, it had a head whose dimensions were similar to those of a soccer. Its legs, the same as those of a bird, were twice as long as those of an average person. The only thing different was its body, its interior that was out of the conventional, which was formed in a way similar to a spring, a spiral that turned over and over again, so much so that it produced hypnosis when staring at it.
The animal behaved calmly, it was not afraid of me, but rather gave the impression that it wanted me to come closer. It was even staring at me. It no longer emitted any sound. There is no more sound. There is no one but the two of us. What made me feel a little confident but at the same time with many expectations with what was going to happen, but because inside me I had to do something, and that something was pushing me to not only observe that vortex that showed bright, beautiful and strong colors.
Hypnosis got the better of me. I could not think. I just looked without blinking, but because it revealed to me things that I could not describe, elements that I had never seen before, and that made me very uneasy.
Everything was beautiful and fascinating. A whole new world for me to enter. And that was what I decided to do by raising my hand and touching with my fingers his body -if you can define it that way-, to that window that would lead me to an unknown place.
I was introducing myself little by little in spite of my nerves, and it was at that moment that my body and my consciousness began to change completely, as if my whole being was becoming maladjusted and changing its appearance to adopt a new one.
My transmutation began. A process that went from darkness to light.
