Take a look at the first two stanzas of the work, in both English and Spanish. Buy a copy of the issue here.
They say I seem old,
But I am alive in my decrepitude,
And they are dead in their puberty.
They criticize me for being boring,
But my inactivity is creative,
And their actions are sterile.
—
Me dicen que parezco viejo;
Pero yo estoy vivo en mi decrepitud
Y ellos están muertos en su pubertad.
Me critican por ser aburrido;
Pero mi inactividad es creativa
Y sus disposiciones son estériles.
