minus-squaretmpodMAlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-22 years ago"Tabacaria"1 by Álvaro de Campos (a Fernando Pessoa heteronym). Here’s an English translation. It’s regarded by many as one of the best poems by him, and it is also a favourite of mine. The original version conveys so much in a brilliant flow of words, which, unfortunately, gets a somewhat lost with translations. 1 From the “official” archive. Edit: links
