There are books that I reread and forgetting that I read before. I'm on page 20, or half a book, and recently I realize that I had already read. It happens more often when they are books that have impressed me, that I had left no trace in memory. Therefore, a time now acquired the habit of writing, on the last page, the date finished reading it. Without

forgetful these errors, I'm not reread those books, no time in life for that. Except poetry to which one can come back several times because the lines have good light dawns that you can treat yourself any time of day. With exceptions I trials, perhaps because some have a poetic flight stimulating.

One of those exceptions, I've booked with relish to begin this new year, is "the navel as the center erotic Tibón Gutierre, which I first read a couple of decades in the library Mexican readings published by the National Council of Culture (CONACULTA) and the Economic Culture Fund (over 200 titles published, affordable price two tacos al pastor), and that gives me the same pleasure yesterday and today.

This is a delightful essay, written by one of the leading experts in Omphalos studies, ie studies on the navel. No joke, the navel is a very serious thing, is the center of the human body, but also a reference center in many cultures. Tibón Gutierrez was interested precisely through the navel when he learned that in Nahuatl, the word Mexico means "the navel of the moon." From there he wrote several books dealing with historical research from the navel relationship with religion, art, and even cooking. The navel, he says, is "the door of the mystery of our birth which closes when we reach the world. "

"was far from imagining that the navel, as well as cosmic center, geographical, architectural, psychological, had too many sexual implications. My starting point was a verse from the Song of Solomon, with whom he is related references of the Kama Sutra and The Arabian Nights. Omphale myths and Venus Cipria I opened new horizons, the Bolognese legend tortelín Venus and left me with a smile on his lips rites umbigada Carnac and the Brazilian caught my attention purely erotic aspects " Tibón Gutierrez said.

From "your navel as round goblet, which never lacks liquor," a verse in the Song of Songs, to the moon as the "navel of the sky" in Leopoldo Lugones, sensuality and poetry has invaded the literature forever, and this condensed text Tibón Gutierre very well that way. The umbilicus attached to the idea of \u200b\u200bpleasure more sublime, more delicate: "Your navel may contain one ounce of musk, the mildest of the aromas," says Scheherazade in The Thousand and One Nights. And in the Kama Sutra is talking about the kisses that are given to women "in the joints of the thighs, arms and the navel." And when I read

those references that rescues Gutierre Tibón of India, I can only remember the erotic temples of Khajuraho, where hundreds of women carved on stone, all in different poses, seem wrapped in silk and their navels appear to tremble when you approach.

There's more to the book and the artistic and political genealogy of the umbilicus, such as for the Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, the etymology of Cuzco also has the same meaning "navel of the earth", ie center of the empire. And Easter Island, called Te Pito o Te henua by its original inhabitants, does not mean anything but "the navel of the world."

One of the most attractive representations of the navel, which not only reaffirms the sensuality sex-linked but also other forms of enjoyment, is the navel that is eaten, ie, the "onfalofagia."

Gutierre Tibón found in Turkish culture references on some delicious pastries are called "navel of a woman", but everything reminds us that the form of Italian tortellini is inspired by Venus's navel (or Lucretia Borgia, according to other versions). There is, therefore, that some eat ravioli tortellini. In the first case you eat pasta, in the second, you eat a sensual symbol.

Gutierre Tibón classifying sports navels in shape. Vertical navel speaks like a miniature female, shaved, which he calls "cat eye" refers to the navel "coffee bean" like "the actress yanquiboliviana" Raquel (Tejada) and Welch other navels that throughout history have inspired poets, painters and photographers.



I also wrote a short poem about the navel in my book Sentímetros "(1990) and was dedicated, as it should be-a Gutierre Tibón:


crescent
midwater fish
transcendent on the beach key astral
naked knot vanishes
blind side, suture
surprised where life ends
to start,
pale tide
night at the slightest touch caught
all trembled res.
