How Many Cigarettes Does A Pouch Of 30 Make

LETTER II, IDEA VILARIÑO POEM (Uruguay)


Reading poems this day, Idea book (beautiful name by the way); poem is "In the most implacable of the night," Poetry Prize winner José Lezama Lima, Casa de las Americas, 2005. I found it by chance looking for a biography of Juan Carlos Onetti of whom more than you want, I can not separate them. Because I feel her breath on the beautiful poems of the poet who was able to be with life, blood and all the grandeur of the poetic word.


LETTER II ( Poem)

You are far and south
there are four.
Leaning back in your chair
supported the coffee table
your room
lying on a bed
yours or someone
you wish to delete, I am thinking of you
not
seekers
with you what I want.
I'm thinking of you and minutes ago
maybe half
not know.
When the light is over
know which are the nine
stretch out the blanket I put on the black suit
and I spend the comb.
'll go to dinner
is clear.
But at some point I
again this quarter
'll throw me in bed and then you remember what
say my desire to see
I look
your presence of man I need in life is
will
as now you get in the afternoon
already
night
to be the only one
thing I care in the world.
