El arbolito cae como una mujer que se desmalla, con la salvedad de que lo hace en un ángulo preciso. Cuando el ebanista le dedica unos segundos de silencio las quejas de algunos pajaritos sorprendidos pelean por ocupar el aire contra el murmullo de un río cercano. El hacha y el silbido no tardan mucho en volver a desgarrar felizmente la madera caída. “El laurel sirve para hacer unas cunas esplendidas.” En ese árbol no había ningún nido.
To young Mark. Always with one hand ocuppied. Children of twenty eight try to tell me what is a good cigar and what isn’t. Me, who never learned to smoke, but always smoked; me, who came into the world asking for a light. Me, who when asked by a waitress about the kind of beer I would prefer, sweet, sour, toasted or fruity, always respond: cold. Me, who began going out when I was seven. Me, that have lived four hundred and fifty six weekends without throwing up once. Me, who stole my parent’s condoms right before my only brother was conceived. Me, who came from the uterus dancing and when the nurses left the room, lighted a ciggy.
