Juan Antonio Villacañas Quote

The earth is brief,
as brief as a man's solemnity.
………
When you, Earth, stop palpitating in my flesh
I, flesh, will give you all my earth.


The Earth and I, from De-triumphant March (1960)


The earth is brief, as brief as a man's solemnity. ……… When you, Earth, stop palpitating in my flesh I, flesh, will give you all my earth.
