“My gift to you will be an abyss, she said,
but it will be so subtle you’ll perceive it
only after many years have passed
and you are far from Mexico and me.

and that won’t be
the happy ending,
but it will be an instant of emptiness and joy.
And maybe then you’ll remember me,
if only just a little.”
― Roberto Bolaño

“Manufacture dooms in your head and you will go mad. Reality is incontravertible. Also, it will not be anticipated.”
