For my Diego

the silent life giver of worlds, what is most important is the nonillusion. 

morning breaks, the friendly reds, the big blues, hands full of leaves, noisy birds, fingers in the hair, pigeons' nests a rare understanding of human struggle simplicity of the senseless song the folly of the wind in my heart = don't let them rhyme girl = sweet xocolatl [chocolate] of ancient Mexico, storm in the blood that comes in through the mouth — convulsion, omen, laughter and sheer teeth needles of pearl, for some gift on a seventh of July, I ask for it, I get it, I sing, sang, I'll sing from now on our magic — love.
