" "Unas veces mis versos han nacido
Del ideal.
Otras del corazón y de la angustia
En tempestad.
Otras de algunas sed como divina
Que pide hablar.
Pero otras muchas, hombres, los ha escrito
Mi vanidad.
Soy, como todos, una pobre mezcla
De lo divino al fin y lo bestial.

Yes, I move, I live, I wander astray—
Water running, intermingling, over the sands.
I know the passionate pleasure of motion;
I taste the forests; I touch strange lands.
Yes, I move—perhaps I am seeking
Storms, suns, dawns, a place to hide.
What are you doing here, pale and polished—
You, the stone in the path of the tide?
