By Rafael Ayala Páez

If you saw what solitude
………………….represents earth without wind
Your face was moon
………………….over a sea a plain a dawn
Wait wait Time was a fabric
………………….The tic-tac of a frozen tide
Your face was the light
then it was visible the stars the city the forest
those recovered images of passion
………………….that sound like phonographs
like docile air that emerges
……………………………………..from memory.

*Translated by Emanuel Xavier.
