"There is nothing precipitous, or gay, or proud in form,
everything appears, taking shape with obvious poverty,
the light of the earth comes from is eyelids
not like the stroke of a bell but rather like tears:
the texture of the day, it feeble canvas,
serves as a bandage for the patients, serves to make signs
in a farewell, behind the absence:
it is the color that wants only to replace,
to cover, swallow, conquer, make distances."
Pablo Neruda, from The Dawn's Debility, in Residence on Earth
