[…we live in distinct worlds, but I will be with you so long as you remember me…He left
whistling but left me his flute. Since then, I usually go out in the afternoons to walk through the
plains, and there at a distance…, I play on the flute the songs that I learned to play in that
region where my grandfather lives]. Translated by Mary Carmen Moreno. July 11, 2016.
