MOVING LANDSCAPES Poem by Luis Vidales

MOVING LANDSCAPES



Mr Wilde has said that sunsets are out of fashion. This defect could undoubtedly be covered
up if landscapes constantly moved around. The fact of seeing a landscape in the same place
- is necessarily boring. The contrary would be charming. And spectacular. A cluster of
trees migrating under the sky. Or a tree going on its way to the jungle - alone - straight-
on its countless little, white legs.

But then people would invent cages to trap landscapes. And a landscape in a cage can't feel
very happy.
