Un mundo lejano que guarda secretos. Una expedición con una misión incierta. Una nave fantasma que deambula por el espacio, a la espera. Un sistema planetario donde diferentes razas conspiran por la supremacía o la libertad. Un solo hombre, Ahicodem, integrante de una raza que por siglos se creía extinguida, cuya existencia sumirá en el caos un gobierno totalitario en manos de El Presidente. Ahicodem, un yin jabar, se verá obligado a luchar para preservar la vida y a liderar una revolución que no desea. Codicia, muerte y traición rodean a Ahicodem desde su nacimiento, porque al yin jabar todos temen y solo unos pocos aman. Descubre la razón por la cual la mayoría se equivoca. Es otro a quien hay que temer. Otro cuyo nombre, Abrahaquin, significa “bendecido”. Amistad, lealtad y amor se mezclan con la ambición más abyecta capaz de cometer traiciones y asesinatos en El duodécimo planeta.

Poesía es la forma óptima de la ciencia. Werner Heisenberg, el físico cuántico, decía que tanto la ciencia como la poesía buscan conocer el principio fundamental de los fenómenos. Y lo hacen por caminos distintos: la primera, a través de las matemáticas; la segunda, por medio de la palabra. Este poemario explora la belleza de la materia y el universo. Belleza a la que, en definitiva, todos pertenecemos.
