"Tabacaria"^1^ by Álvaro de Campos (a Fernando Pessoa heteronym). Here's an English translation.
It's regarded by many as one of the best poems by him, and it is also a favourite of mine. The original version conveys so much in a brilliant flow of words, which, unfortunately, gets a somewhat lost with translations.
^1^ From the "official" archive.
