Darío escribe entonces los poemas que serán incluidos en una obra de gran importancia para el modernismo: Prosas profanas.

"L'entêtement du matin à naître
n'a pas suffit à l'allongée
et c'est pourquoi l'aube n'en finit pas de creuser des visages mordus d'attente et de revers"
Dit de la débâcle confrontant la parole à l'échec et au silence. Tout semble alors s'éteindre. Ni liesse populaire ni appel à la bonté humaine, même le chemin s'épuise dans l'épuisement de l'espoir. Curieusement, Éloge du paladin révèle les armes miraculeuses, ces voix souveraines...

Vivimos en un espejismo virtual, como realidad y metáfora, como experiencia y tabú. La escritura...

Cuando era niña, disfrutaba agitar la mano para saludar a los pasajeros de los trenes que circulaban hacia mi derecha porque pensaba que iban en busca de un mejor lugar para vivir. Pero al ver algún tren circular en sentido opuesto, me entristecía, pensando que eran los mismos pasajeros que regresaban a casa derrotados.

The central section, "Buffalo Women," is a Civil War correspondence between lovers that plays on our assumptions about war, gender, morality, and politics. Sweetest Henri, I know we promised to be honest, one to the other, but your recent missive, though welcome as any epistle from you, filled me with a dread that...
