Valeidoso, inconstante, todo lo transmuta; devenir que todo lo consume con su eterno apetito voraz. Si vien gue Heráclito quien a través del pensamiento llegó a esta verdad primigenia, es el poeta quien pone al descubierto que "todo es olvido, sombra, desenlace". Como las llamas de una hoguera que se elevan a los cielos en una danza que embelesa con su sugestiva y anárquica cadencia, el fuego "es el mundo que se extingue y cambia / para durar (fue siempre) eternamente".

El despertar es un bosque donde se recupera lo perdido y se destruye lo ganado. Y el día futuro, una miseria que te encuentra a solas con tus pobres palabras".
