Bummer?

A man is going blind, he may or may not be dying.

I think he dies but what do I know. A tiny weenie 2 page story about an agonizing man. I'm sure this is plagued with symbolism because I pretty much didn't understand a damn thing. Classic cryptic Borges. Speed dating style.

¿Bajón?

Un tipo se está quedando ciego, puede que esté o no muriendo.

Creo que muere pero que sé yo. Una pequeñísima historia de 2 páginas sobre un hombre agonizante. Estoy seguro de que esto está plagado de simbolismos porque prácticamente no entendí un joraca. Clásico críptico Borges. Estilo citas rápidas.
