Morning eyelash, don’t arise!
Give us our daily bread,
Lord…!
………
And at this cold hour, when earth
smells of to human dust and is so sad,
I would like to knock on all the doors,
and to beg I don’t know whom, forgiveness,
and to make little pieces of fresh bread
here, in the oven of my heart…!
(From Cesar Vallejo’s ‘Our Bread’)
