What I gained

The naked piazza
2000

translated by Nicholas Kostis 

For two years now I have been giving, and receiving
nothing. Whereas he has been on a free ride. “What
did I gain?” I asked myself from time to time with
bitterness. Untill the answer came from Cavafy him-
self: “You gained what is most precious, his face.”
