so early

3.30 in the morning-again confused teenagers yell, scream, fight, drink.

Any

Any little thing made me cry. A house seen from the distance, traffic jams, people trapped inside their cars, the daily news.

And..

And then I realized that something had gone wrong in the last few days, something had gone wrong in my relationship to the Mexican poets or with the new women in my life, but no matter how much I thought about it I couldn´t figure out what the problem was, the abyss that opened up behind me if I looked over my shoulder. All the same, it didn´t frighten me. It was an abyss without monsters, holding only darkness, silence and emptiness, three extremes that caused me pain, lesser pain, true, a flutter in the stomach, but a pain that sometimes felt like fear.

If simón is slang for yes and nel means no, then what does simonel mean?

What are you doing?

Fat and hairy wolf
What are you doing
In the middle of the night
Looking into holes
making all the moles
scurry away in fright
