...

I light a cigarette and think of writing them,

And in the cigarette I savor my liberation from all thoughts,

I follow the smoke like a lane of my own,

For one sensitive, dexterous moment enjoying

The freedom from all speculation

And the consciousness that metaphysics comes from feeling out of sorts.

Then I fall back in my chair

And go on smoking.

As long as fate permits, I'll go on smoking.

-Fernando Pessoa-
