A Writer's Ruminations

"

The conclusion is to live
for oneself

because all the rest can’t reach you

and because it’s always too late
to start over
without fissures
without excuses

because you are
invariably
on your own.

"

— Isabel Cadenas Cañón, from “To Leave” (translated by Kenneth Heaton and Margarita Larios)
