Texts by A. Lonsdale. (c) 2020; except the verse from "Farewell Remembering Goodbye" is translated by A. Lonsdale from the original Spanish by Cesar Vallejo, 12 October 1937:

"At the end, in the end, at last,
I turn, I've returned, and I'm finished and I moan to you, giving you
the key, my hat, this little note for everyone.
At the end of the key is the metal where we had learned
to ungild the gold; and there is, in the end
of my hat, this poor brain badly combed;
and as a last glass of smoke, in its dramatic role,
this practical dream of the soul rests."
