"Growing old I turned to wine
but it wasn't my fault if I preferred wine to a man
who was cheating on me with my cousin.
She was plump and fresh
and maybe she would have brought him a son as a dowry,
the son that I heroically didn't have
so I drowned my thirst in brandy
and died early under an immense acacia
while I was taking the last winter sun."
