lava flow

Marie Kazalia


just before the long descent
into Mexico City
the plane flew straight over
a round red crater
at first I thought from a meteor
striking the earth there long ago--
then with further examination of the
visible clues from such a height--
could clearly see the old red lava flow
and the crater where the top of the mountain
had blown--a cinder crater I call it--
and the farming in the valley below--
edging the dead lava
