1
I want to sleep the dream of the apples
2
To withdraw from the tumult of cemeteries
3
I want to sleep the dream of that child
4
Who wanted to cut his heart on the high seas
5
I don't want to hear again that the dead do not lose their blood
6
That the putrid mouth goes on asking for water
7
I don't want to learn of the tortures of the grass
8
Nor of the moon with the serpent's mouth that labors before dawn
9
I want to sleep a while
10
A while, a minute, a century
11
But all must know that I have not died
12
That there is a stable of gold in my lips
13
That I am the small friend of the west wind
14
That I am the immense shadow of my tears
15
Cover me at dawn with a veil
16
Because dawn will throw fists full of ants at me
17
And wet with hard water my shoes
18
So that the pincers of the scorpion slide
19
For I want to sleep the dream of the apples
20
To learn a lament that will cleanse me of the earth
21
For I want to live with that dark child
22
Who wanted to cut his heart on the high seas
