Explore "An Assassin Sleeps" by Pablo Neruda on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The waist stained by wine when the vile god steps on broken wineglasses and dishevels the unbridled dawn's light: the rose watered in the little prostitute's sob, the feverish days' wind entering the paneless windows where the victim sleeps with his shoes on, in an acrid smell of pistols, in a blue color of lost eyes.
