Newton was a second Adam of Science. The first knew beauty. The second a Pegasus weighed down with chains. And they were not to blame. The two apples were rosy and new, but bitter according to legend. Both the embarrassed breasts of the child innocence!" Frederico Garcia Lorca Scientists, political scientists, opinion leaders, chiefs of great and small political sects, all have gathered around Newton's fallen apple. All of them analyze, discuss, corroborate. Hours, days, weeks, months, entire years they take up. Finally they come to the irrefutable conclusion: the apple has fallen because the law of gravity so orders it. It is irremediable, the apple must fall, and, by doing so, it has done nothing other than to subject itself to the law of gravity. The political scientists congratulate each other and then begin great essays in order to show Newton's apple as an example of 'real-politik.' The chiefs of state talk of erecting a multiple monument in all the palaces of Power. But, among the persons gathered around the future monument to modern politics, there is a strange person. He seems to be a shadow, without face and without name. If they ask him who he is, the shadow would respond "zapatista," but no one asks him anything. Everyone is very busy with their calculations, plans and programs. But, while the scientists are making complicated calculations concerning velocity, trajectory, much weight, acceleration, wind resistance, impact and similar etceteras, and while the political scientists are re-writing Machiavelli and discussing prices with the modern princes, the zapatista approaches the apple, he looks at it, he smells it, he touches it, he listens to it... The zapatista understands what the apple is whispering in his ear. He understands the challenge demanded by its cry. The apple says that fate does not order it to fall to the ground, and, since it is a transgressor of the law who is listening to it, it is about breaking the law of gravity. The apple is an apple, but it is, above all, a lady. The zapatista is without face or name, but he is, above all, a gentleman. And the paper and pencil come out again, and the apple explains and the zapatista feels and agrees. This apple that Newton has chained to the ground has another destiny. The moon is an apple. The scales of history need two apples in order to be able to look out at the morning clearly. While managing to to work out the reverse flight of Newton's apple, the zapatista looks at the apple again, smells it, touches it, and, what else, gives it a tender bite. The political scientists continue repeating and repeating to each other the 'real-politik,' and the etceteras that already fill the magazines and newspapers and the radio and television air time. The zapatista continues making calculations. To fall upwards, that is the mystery whose solution has been proposed...
