Me la trajo el aire un día porque sí o por donaire, un día en que el desaire parecía como el aire del mal aire de aquel día ¡y me enamoré del aire, del aire que la traía! ¡Aire, aire!, prorrumpía, cóncava de aire la vela del vuelo de la alegría de mi airosa carabela, y el aire, que suponía que era el gozo, que me ahogaba acudía y se colaba por los mil huecos del día de las mil horas abiertas de la casa de mil puertas del aire donde vivía... ¡y me enamoré del aire, del aire que la traía!
