Translated and read by Parvati Nair (Queen Mary University of London)
CHILDHOOD embraced the hope
Of resisting and raising the sail
That would deafen reality,
Immediacy filled with soot
Where stars did not twinkle.
LA NIÑEZ abrazaba la esperanza
de resistir y levantar el vuelo
que ensordeciera la realidad,
la inmediatez rellena de carbón
donde no titilaban las estrellas.
