CRONOLOGIA DE JULIA DE BURGOS
The past is only a shadow emerging from
nowhere.
Life was somewhere forgotten
and sought refuge in depths of tears
and sorrows;
over this vast empire of solitude and darkness.
Where is the voice of freedom,
freedowm to laugh,
to move
without the heavy phantom of despair?
Where is the form of beauty
unshaken in its veil simple and pure?
Where is the warmth of heaven
pouring its dreams of love in broken
spirits?
It has to be from here,
right this instance,
my cry into the world.
My cruy that is no more mine,
but hers and his forever,
the comrades of my silence,
the phantoms of my grave.
It has to be from here,
forgotten but unshaken,
among comrades of silence
deep into Welfare Island
my farewell to the world.
El cadáver, desprovisto de toda identificación, se conduce al depósito funerario de la ciudad, al fracasar todas las diligencias oficiales por identificarlo. La fotografía de su cadáver sirve de clave para aclarar el misterio y, sólo después de un mes, se logra reconstruir totalmente los dolorosos incidentes... El Certificado de Defunción indica que muere de pulmonia lobular.
