Poem
Giovanni Quessep
Toys
The cracked cistern, dust and blueness,Perseveres in this noon.
We children descend and on the bottom
Find tin toys,
A tapestry weaving itself, birds.
This, which is the past, grants us
Its murmur and mystery, and we recommence
Lengthy voyages through its sky.
Let death come that way, as childhood
Came in a toy; and, on descending
Through the shadow to its forest let us find
A tapestry weaving itself eternal, fables.

El aljibe agrietado persevera,polvo y azul, en este mediodía.
Los niños descendemos, y en su fondo
encontramos juguetes de hojalata,
un tapiz que se teje solo, pájaros.
Esto que es el pasado nos otorga
su rumor y misterio, y reiniciamos
largas navegaciones por su cielo.
Venga la muerte así, como ha venido
la infancia en un juguete; y encontraremos
al bajar por la sombra a su floresta
un tapiz que se teja eterno, fábulas.
