- Why did you try to become a saint?
- When the fog rolled in
- Once upon a time
- The few taxis on the rambla
- Imagine you met me today
- My mother was right
- Tell me
- The beginning is never the beginning
- Who said that?
- Mauro will be back at noon
- So what if I leave?
- Mauro had come back in a terrible mood
- And what will you look for there?
- The phone rang at seven in the morning
- Ha ha ha
- It wasn't unusual for us to wake up without power
- Which sounds better
- We all expected that the birds would meet the same fate as the fish
- In the end
- Days passed from one blackout to the next
- A cloud is a cloud no matter how far it is from the ground
- When I opened my eyes the next morning
- That's impossible
- A beat-up black car circled the plaza
- Do you remember that day?
- It took me over half an hour to reach the front desk
- The serpent molts and is remade
- I took the elevator upstairs
- It would be like a museum
- I can't remember the last time I saw her
- If you're given a box full of air
- I left the plazas behind me like distance markers along the avenue
- Where are you?
- The losses were greater than anticipated
- Then
- Two trees fell in the plaza and the wind howled all night
- You're angry
- A team of divers went into the river to investigate
- I asked so little of you
- I went out in the afternoon when the fog was at its most dense
- Imagine you told me everything you thought
- Actually
- Explain it to me
- Nothing is yours until someone else loses or discards it
- What is silence?
- That night I made rice with tuna and mayonnaise
- Everything has an edge
- I threw the doors to my bedroom closets open
- Inside nothing
- Trucks arrived and took everyone away
- Can you imagine the space between your eyes?
- In a kidney transplant
