There in the field:
the olives.
·
Warm yourself they say no leave us to our pits
·
& the sky she’s trying to slug herself
into the orchard
with her beard of bright crumbs
·
There in the delta:
the mallards.
·
It’s the end of a few gods there’s washing of flanks
·
Your breath wools.
·
Your breath wools.
·
We find ourselves guilty of our pits
·
& now the family turns south
the warbirds
their long feathers that dig out
the furrows
& trail the dismay
“Thunderhead” is a collaboration with Federico García Lorca, who was shot at the Fuente Grande in 1936.
