all'Who?' said the cloud that started to cry'Me
' said the rider as dry as a bone'How
?' said the sun that melted the ground and'Why

' said the stars to the moon in the
sky'No' said the trees that started to moan'No
' said the dust that blunted its eyes'Yes
' said the rider as white as a bone'No
' said the moon that rose from his sleep'No
'said the cry of the dying
sun'No' said the planet as it started to weep
'Yes' said the rider and laid down his gun. The

Adieu, said the bird in the branch of a tree
Farewell, said the snakes to the dying light
Adieu, said the fish in the river of sleep
Goodbye, said the rider,"Goodbye and good night"
