Para el Espanol Sacerdote
i
stand outside
a Seville church
son
of a
culture, left behind.
my
heart quickens
at the salida
hands
tighten around
the carried paso
as
much a
Spaniard as anyone
yet
an Indio
just the same.

Twenty minutes to Perfection
twenty
minute(s)
to cooked perfection.
twenty-eight
days for
pecking, strutting ambulation.
just
a fraction
for aphrodisiac construction.

Floating Balot

why only
some, not all?

swimming debris
of duck embryos
just
a careless
look at time.

between lips, tongue
M;

the mortality,
the everyday changes.

Pumpkins
Marcos:
what
is a
jack of lantern
Aquino:
just
a vegetable
without its insides
Marcos:
