With tears in my eyes to you I came
With tears in my eyes, of genuine sorrow
This is the last time your books I borrow
I have been reading them in vain
Incidental, short poems in English and Spanish
(lo lamento: mi teclado no tiene acentos!)
"Oh idle reader who with your time regales me
These humble pages will, I hope, amuse -
But should they not, then may at least my Muse
Bestow her grace upon her one-man army"

Divertimento de primaria
De la alta torre tu mirada lanzas
como saeta contra tu enemigo
mas el que hieres no es mas que un mendigo
de tus dulces palabras y alabanzas.
and in English:
From the high tower, your gaze you throw
Like a sharp arrow against your foe
yet he whom you wounded does only beg
for your sweet words of love and praise.
