Seated in a casino, heart racing,
The surroundings dissipate into clouds.
Suddenly you are in the street singing
A song, empty-handed and wandering.
Suddenly you are in a painting, Bouts,
Not sure which one is you, Heaven or Hell,
But you see yourself dearly with sum doubts. 
Suddenly a dream you are living shouts
From abysmal lows to mountainous highs.
Man, in a fantasy—who is speaking?—
Wonders in a sense whether all is lies
And bodies masks of that which never dies.
Beauty, I will tell you true, says better
To gamble in love wisely, suddenly,
in a game for two who, instantly, one.
