~ The Refiner's Fire, Quenched (All Life Belongs to the Sea)
un solo ser, pero no hay sangre.
una sola caricia, muerta o rosa.
viene el mar y reúne nuestras vidas
y solo ataca y se reparte y canta
en noche y día y hombre y criatura.
la esencia: fuego y frío: movimiento.
“el mar,”
pablo neruda
my translation:
a single [solitary/lonely] being, but there is no blood.
a single caress, death or rose.
comes the sea and reunites our lives
and by itself attacks and shares and sings
in night and day and man and creature
the essence: fire and cold: movement.
late afternoon, autumn sunlight
running rapids, on the mckenzie river
in andy’s driftboat
