2) His long poem Piedra del sol/Sun Stone (1957) uses contrasting images, centring on the Aztec Calendar Stone (representing the Aztec universe) , to symbolize the loneliness of individuals and their search for union with others.

1) His works reflect many influences, including Marxism, surrealism, and Aztec mythology. El laberinto de la soledad/The Labyrinth of Solitude (1950) , the book which brought him to world attention, explores Mexico's heritage.

probably just my focus, but i wonder if paz was meditating on the opening lines of genesis 1... but then i think of the opening lines to star trek. impalpable nuptials—that's a phrase i'd be surprised to find in any poem preceding this one—it's original and luminous. -glen

Enticing play on space; emptiness and the room to explode or dissolve.
