“Epitáfio /J.L.Borges (?)
Já somos a ausência que seremos.
O pó elementar que nos ignora,
que foi o rubro Adão, e que é agora
todos os homens, e que não veremos.
Já somos sobre a campa as duas datas
do início e do fim. O ataúde,
a obscena corrupção que nos desnude,
o pranto, e da morte suas bravatas.
Não sou o insensato que se aferra
ao som encantatório do seu nome.
Penso com esperança em certo homem
que não há de saber o que eu fui na terra.
Sob o cruel azul do firmamento
consolo encontro neste pensamento [277].”

“No dia de sua morte, minha avó entregou ao meu pai o relógio de bolso do senhor arcebispo, de ouro maciço, marca Ferrocarril de Antioquia, mas fabricado na Suíça, que conservo até hoje e que passará ao meu filho, como um testemunho e um estandarte (embora eu não saiba do quê), no dia em que eu morrer [60].”
