(In 1945, I came to this planet... )
...
Escuchaba ayer mismo un cantante,
uno de tantos,
y hallé mis hojos llenos de esupor al oir:
"El cielo azul se muestra
espléndido y real".
Días extraños, vivimos días extraños.
Cantaba: Oigo sonidos de swing
que me llegan del Neolítico, del Holoceno.
Oigo notas de un violín y me circundan
el alba y la mañana.
¿Quién sabe cómo era el río del Amazonas
y Alejandría la Grande y los rezos y el Amor?
¿Y cómo sería el color?
Me lamían sonidos que cubrían la rabia
y venganza de los hombres con mazas.
También batallas, matanzas de los hombres civiles.
El hombre neozoico de la Era Cuaternaria.
Días extraños, vivimos días extraños.
En la voz de un cantante
se refleja al sol.
cada amada, cada amante.
Días extraños, vivimos días extraños.
