Give me your holy bread (Dame tu oscura hostia) - León Felipe


Do not take pity on me, Earthshine.
Give me your dark holy bread, your last piece of bread...
A memoryless, one-way dream.
Let me wallow in this cesspit,
Further below the mud and the larva...
Where life is a green phantom
That nobody has even seen.

From El ciervo (The Stag) 1958
