The Limping Devil Masks

Poema

"Por la noche habrá retreta
y fuegos artificiales,
bailes, disfraz, atabales
y un toro, pero con beta.
Cantinas y cantaletas
habrá sin comparación,
y en toda esta confusión
se oirá por doquiera así:
"Vivas el Comandante, en fin,
de Armas, Pedro Pepín",
"Viva la Restauración".
El Carnaval."

Por Juan Antonio Alix
