summers exodus


victor salinas




up went the sun
and death lapped our sides
said
��we’ll see you there
and
pull up a chair
i will show you the demise
of a grand dance and all of its inhabitants
with the universe

cactus in the wilderness
burial ground
stones in the circle
Indians scatter the forest
hair and nails crucifix and a corpse
take us to the homeland
many centuries later

i gots one thing on my mind
a set of nylon legs around me
a cool drink in my hand
perhaps a window with a view
money along the floor of the stale icy bedroom walls
nirvana #1 with a bullet
the ball club won the pennant
and later that lifetime
i strolled through central park
and wasn’t afraid

brothas strong
idle w/ the chevy
morning and night
contraceptive devices, like parent kill children
and why has my only animal come home bruised
like Buddha
being sodomized
with a philosophical point of view
i am not aware
of the reason
