el sordo sol y los muros

El sordo sol y los muros
de la idiota ciudad están en su sitio
y más terca que una mula es la vida
y espantanecedades soy y firmo la carta
XIV
Sólo con disparates ideológicos
se hacen revoluciones triunfantes
Si así no fuera ahora mismo
pastaríamos sobre estos bellos prados
comiendo hierba y espantando moscas

XV
The deaf sun and the walls
of the idiotic city are in their place
and more stubborn than a mule is life
and I frighten off silliness and I sign the letter
XIV
Only with ideological nonsense
successful revolutions are made
If it were not so now
we would graze on these beautiful meadows
eating grass and swatting flies
