You held out in the front line alone.
No one has taken that road again.
You are the last.

Because it is hard
to persist,
hard to let oneself go,
hard to stand enormity,
hard not to belong to the shouting,
hard to hold on to language at its limits,
hard to be aware that words do not protect
and still do one’s work, secretly, for no reason.

Rafael Cadenas
Translated by Rowena Hill
