L'aura del campo


'é a lua, é a lua, na quintana dos mortos'
♣ Federico García Lorca ♣


Higgins Street Bridge, April 25th  2009, Missoula, Montana


L'aura del campo. A breeze in the meadow. So it began the last day of Spring, 2005; on the 16th day of the month of Light of the year 162. This is a supplement to my daily journal written to a friend, my muse; notes I do not share. Here I will share what the breeze has whispered to me.

Going home

It's almost over:
         the ticket bought,
         the rent paid up,
         my nerves now spent.

So — was it worth it?
         one never knows,
         one only hopes,
         and you decide


to keep my happy,
         to say hello,
         or let me go,
         one last goodbye.

Howl caught a cold

Grunts and coughs, barely a whisper.
What can Wind do if it cannot blow?

Caress a child's cheek?
Lift and warm the spirits?

How can it redirect clouds?
How can it banish Winter?

But the howl had caught a cold.
And now it could barely whisper.

Of yellow kites and your green umbrella

At the water's edge
I dream of yellow kites,
and that green umbrella,
keeping me from getting burnt.

I'll burn regardless,
consumed by your flames,
hotter than the sun,
turning water into steam.

Cloven

I cleave your breast,
rip it open, expose your heart.
I find a snug place to grow
where once you flourished.

You welcome this change,
holding onto life long after death.
It's in the sheltering,
this last embrace.
