[**Jimi Hendrix**](https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimi_Hendrix), quien ha sido considerado el más grande guitarrista del rock, falleció el 18 de septiembre de 1970, al parecer, a consecuencia del consumo de drogas. Más allá de lo que pensemos acerca de esto, se trató de un artista que, como reconocen estudiosos y críticos, “revolucionó” la incorporación de la guitarra (eléctrica) en la música contemporánea.
Como escucha de muchas de sus piezas en su momento y conocedor de su vida, decidí escribir este ejercicio poético.

Rasguña rasga
esas cuerdas Jimi
como si fuera el último día
(aunque cualquier día puede ser el final)

Scratch scratch those strings Jimi as if it were the last day (though any day could be the end)
Go back to your childhood Seattle with the smell of booze in the rooms and ukulele in the trash and Elvys in the distance to your Tennessee of soul and rhythm and blues
Come back to remind us in the soul cadent and sonorous of the guitars voices of John Lee Hoocker Muddy Waters B.B. King, in your daring Africanity and your dissonant Americanism
Come back even though you're gone in that dawn of dissolving pleasures, pungent smells, penetrating smells and agonizing inhalations to listen to your electronic scream.
Tear wounds those strings that are like life the only instrument we have left

_[Jimi Hendrix**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimi_Hendrix), who has been considered the greatest rock guitarist, died on September 18, 1970, apparently as a result of drug use. Whatever we may think about this, he was an artist who, as scholars and critics recognize, "revolutionized" the incorporation of the (electric) guitar in contemporary music._
_As a listener of many of his pieces at the time and a connoisseur of his life, I decided to write this poetic exercise._

Rasguña rasga
esas cuerdas Jimi
como si fuera el último día
(aunque cualquier día puede ser el final)
Vuelve a tu Seattle de infancia
con olor a alcohol en las habitaciones
y de ukelele en la basura
y de Elvys en la distancia
a tu Tennessee de soul y de rhythm and blues
Vuelve para recordarnos
en el alma cadente y sonora
de las guitarras voces de John Lee Hoocker Muddy Waters B.B. King,
en tu africanidad atrevida
y tu americanidad disonante
Vuelve aunque te hayas ido
en aquella madrugada
de placeres disolventes olores penetrantes
e inhalaciones agónicas
para escuchar tu grito electrónico.
Rasga hiere
esas cuerdas que son
como la vida
el instrumento único que nos queda

Les dejo a continuación dos videos: el de la interpretación de "Hey Joe", una de sus más reconocidas canciones, donde llega a tocar la guitarra con sus dientes, y el de su intervención en el Festival de Woodstock (1969), en el cual hace la versión nunca olvidable del himno de los Estados Unidos.
_Here are two videos: one of his performance of "Hey Joe", one of his most famous songs, where he plays the guitar with his teeth, and one of his appearance at the Woodstock Festival (1969), where he performs the never-to-be-forgotten version of the U.S. anthem._
