\na mi almohada de ambulante peregrino\/ser\u00e1 del celo c\u00f3smico\/su l\u00facido o p\u00e1lido reflejo…\/\u00bfQui\u00e9n soy yo para disputarle\/la alqu\u00edmica arrogancia de sus sue\u00f1os?\/\u00bfAquellas claridades a veces oscurecidas\/cuando explotan en el cosmos\/y no son sino semillas\/de un mundo nuevo, y\/porqu\u00e9 no,\/de un hombre nuevo?…\/Como yo, como t\u00fa…\/Pero sin vanidad alguna\/que maquille el pensar y el sentimiento\/\u00bfO es que acaso no somos m\u00e1s que polvo\/y en polvo nos convertiremos?<\/em><\/p>\n
