Tango de la Materia, No. 34

To betray the heart
Is not the same no
As to betray the reason
The revelation Corazón
To overcome the deities of sense
In essence retracted as weakness
At the limit of (sanity/
World dependence/
The child of the spheres)
A reasoned thievery
Having reasoned well
The stead of the heart
A fragile thing
Invisible razón
To reap the rational waste
Of hopeless romance
Savouring the emotional taste
Of a love not one's own
Having reasoned it there
As off some undulating song
