Untitled

 

Sitting next to a cat 

with the sun in my eyes 

amidst flitting rainbows

O fleet afternoon.

Inspiration

 

Surfacing

as an idea

too trivial

to water

nevertheless 

I let it grow.

Time

 

I live my days 

in half-curated pockets 

outside of time

to counter time.

Untitled

 

Me veo por los ocasos.

( I see myself in sunsets.)

-Federico García Lorca from the poem, “Confusión”

Starlings

In the back of a car 

she returned to me 

as we both watched 

a flock of starlings

pouring wordlessly 

across the crimson sky.

La Gata Mágica

 

Los temblores suaves 

de una gata

pueden salvar

el mundo!

A Month Later

 

At my parents’ home 

the trees are

now bare of snow 

as two squirrels scamper

along the trunk

of the ancient oak.

My morning matcha 

I drink from  

a different bowl.
