Tactic And Strategy - Mario Benedetti
My tactic is
Looking at you,
Learning how you are,
Loving you as you are,
My tactic is
Talking to you
And listening to you
To build with words
An indestructible bridge
My tactic is
Remaining in your memories
I don't know how
Nor with which pretext
But remaining with you.
My tactic is
Being frank,
And knowing that you are frank,
And not selling each other
Simulations
So that between us
There is no curtain
Nor abyss.
My strategy is,
However,
Deeper and
Easier,
My strategy is
That one of these days
I don't know how
Nor with which pretext
You finally
Need me.

For sheer soul-searching, The Hound of Heaven by Francis Thompson.
For reflection, anything from The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran.
For intellectual thought, anything from T.S. Eliot.
