🦋 worn away

I am not making much headway with understanding the rest of the poem, but this image from Ernesto Mejía Sánchez' "Long Play/Boleros" leaps off the page at me:

TU ROSTRO se borra como el de la moneda en las yemas
    del avaro

YOUR FEATURES worn away like those of the face of a coin
     in a miser's fist
