When I close a book	A
I open life	B
I hear	C
faltering cries	D
among harbours	D
Copper ignots	D
slide down sand pits	D
to Tocopilla	E
Night time	F
Among the islands	D
our ocean	G
throbs with fish	H
touches the feet the thighs	D
the chalk ribs	D
of my country	I
The whole of night	J
clings to its shores by dawn	K
it wakes up singing	L
as if it had excited a guitar	M
	-
The ocean's surge is calling	L
The wind	N
calls me	I
and Rodriguez calls	D
and Jose Antonio	O
I got a telegram	P
from the quot Mine quot Union	G
and the one I love	Q
whose name I won't let out	R
expects me in Bucalemu	P
	-
No book has been able	E
to wrap me in paper	S
to fill me up	T
with typography	I
with heavenly imprints	D
or was ever able	E
to bind my eyes	D
I come out of books to people orchards	D
with the hoarse family of my song	U
to work the burning metals	D
or to eat smoked beef	V
by mountain firesides	D
I love adventurous	D
books	D
books of forest or snow	O
depth or sky	W
but hate	X
the spider book	A
in which thought	Y
has laid poisonous wires	D
to trap the juvenile	E
and circling fly	W
Book let me go	O
I won't go clothed	Z
in volumes	D
I don't come out	R
of collected works	D
my poems	D
have not eaten poems	D
they devour	S
exciting happenings	D
feed on rough weather	S
and dig their food	A2
out of earth and men	B2
I'm on my way	C2
with dust in my shoes	D
free of mythology	I
send books back to their shelves	D
I'm going down into the streets	D
I learned about life	B
from life itself	D2
love I learned in a single kiss	D
and could teach no one anything	L
except that I have lived	E2
with something in common among men	B2
when fighting with them	P
when saying all their say in my song	U
