Vallejo is great. I've been really into Lorca's writings on duende.

Seville by Federico García Lorca

Seville is a tower
full of fine archers.

Seville to wound.
Córdoba to die.

A city that lies in wait
for long rhythms,
and it coils them up
like labyrinths.
Like grapevine stems
Ablaze.

Seville to wound!

Under the arc of sky,
over its clear, clean plain,
it shoots the constant
arrow of its river.

Córdoba to die!

And crazed by the horizon,
it mixes in its wine
Don Juan’s bitterness
with Dionysius’ perfection.

Seville to wound.
Always Seville to wound!
