“Love, what does it matter
that time,
the very time that raised two flames,
two waving heads of wheat,
my body and your gentleness,
tomorrow will hold them safe
or mill the grain,
and with those same unseen fingers
erase the identities that separate us,
giving us the final victory
of being one beneath the ground.
— Pablo Neruda, from “Ode to Time,” Selected Odes of Pablo Neruda (California Press, 1990)”
