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.

July, 1935

His cousin drove up
in his Pierce Arrow.
while his other cousin,
a slim vaquero,
guided the bull.
The possibility,
now probability,
was that something would go awry.
He knew shit flew between those two,
so he went to join his doe-eyed bride,
inside. As he always said:
He preferred his shoofly pie
without the flies.

When all was reduced,
to clarify,
like a side dish
of butter-and-brains,
all that remained
now fit in a barrow
full of manure, bone meal and marrow
fit to compost
for next year's garden
out past the outhouse,
near the pasture,
next to the shiny Pierce Arrow
resplendent over their graves.

When we are ready

It's the emptiness between our ears
we fill with harmful fears,
turning inward, raising walls
harder than our skulls.

But not to worry—
Outer Space is in no hurry
to invite us to the Universe
beyond our earthly hearse.
