The broad sheet billows and embraces wind
The wind escorts the voyage out to sea
The shoreline spies the receding craft:
Why have you gone away from me?
The passengers seek the shrinking coast:
Why have you gone away from me?
As the racing stars and their distant masses
Faintly lighting the slumbering planet
Reflect the infinite choreography:
Why have you gone away from me?
Porto Alegre, Brazil – December, 1990
