GABRIEL CELAYA AND ELEMENTARY PARTICLES

Last 18th of March was the centenary of Gabriel Celaya´s birth and since this blog is very involved with the present, here we have some lines by him.

And why so neutral, so sure of himself,
Mr Neutron?
One is going round and round with his electric charges
and he, stable, does not even notice
that one, although tiny, as if were a joke,
could make an ungodly scene,
disintegration.
A jump is enough, quantum or tantum
and it’s over, big fish!


When I hear someone mention Celaya, I always remember Atlético Celaya, a Mexican team where Rafa Paz retired, a bloody great footballer who played the World Cup in Italy in 1990.
