Periferiara
Dani Blanco
Badira periferian bizi direnak; hirien periferian, munduaren periferiatan, bizitzarenetan, mugetan bizi direnak. Eta jakin badakigu, erdigunean hain ondo bizi garenok ere posible dugula harako bidea egitea. Periferiara, sistemaren ertzetara joan gaitezke, bidal gaitzakete. Begira duzun horrek bidal zaitzake, periferiara.
Begira ditugun begiei begira osatzen omen dugu gure gua, zure zua, nire nia. Begirada abegitsuak, lagunaren begiradak, begirada galduak, itsuak eta begiratzen gaituzten arren ikusten ez gaituztenak. Hortaz pentsatzen ari zarela, behin hor nonbait, autopista ertzeko iragarki erraldoietan letra larriz irakurritakoaz akordatu zara. Badirela periferian bizi direnak; hirien periferian, bizitzaren periferian, munduaren periferiatan, mugetan. Eta horrelaxe ikusi zaitu berak, begiratzen zaituen horrek: periferiako.
– Erdiguneak ezin omen ditu ertzekoak maite– gogorarazi dizu lagun batek, telefonoa belarrian, kotxeko giltza eskuan eta alaba besoetan daramazun artean.
– Baina ertzekoak behar ditu, halabeharrez– erantzun diozu. Eta halaxe hasi duzu zentrotik periferiara doan bidea. Bidaia txartelik zenuenik ere ez zenekienean, ezustean.
Burua leihoko kristalean ipinita, parkeek berdeak dirudite, eta urdin dago zerua, eta ez dakizu ze egunkaritan irakurritakoaz akordatu zara: andrazkook omen dugun halako beirazko sabaiaz, eta emakume-ama-langile hitz kate inposibleaz.
Begira dituzun begiek ez dute horrelako hiritarrik nahi haien hiriburuan. Kartzelak lepo daude, manifak modaz pasata, erretzea debekatuta, periodikoak inprimatzeko papera amaitu egin zen, eta merkea da periferiarako noranzko bakarreko errepideak eraikitzea.
– Emakumea, “joko-arauak ezagutu eta onartzen ditut” laukitxoa markatuko zenuen ala?– galdetu dizu lagunak larrituta. Baina zuk ez duzu horrelakorik gogoratzen. Ez zenekien horiek jokoaren arauak zirenik.
Zorionez, supermerkatu batek postontzian utzitako katalogoan irakurritakoaz akordatu zara: zentrotik zenbat eta urrunago, are eta txikiagoa erdiguneak eragiten duen indarra, txikiagoa da erdigunearen boterea.
Horretaz akordatuta irribarre egin duzu, haraxe zoaz eta hantxe ikusi dituzu garai bateko kantari ezagunak, periodikoetako “plumilak”, Patxi errementaria, eta Mafalda dator hamaiketako manifaren pankarta-buruan, eta haraxe zoaz jendartera, zapata gorriak oinetan, txorizo bokadiloa eskuetan, libre, libre, periferian.
