Migrant Woman
Оглавлениеin the wrinkled black and white
photo she holds the Holy Book
with sweat streaming down her
earth colored brow. with dark
eyes in a slender migrant farmer
frame she hopes to break free. I
expect you know the fields that
consume her, the misty bleeding
landscape, the fretting hours spent
with others bent, the riches made
from her wounds, and the Spanish
tears she fetches from her most
intimate well. keep her divine
image in front of you, let the part
of you that is dead, stand beside
her with news that we are entirely
set free, rip out God’s pages from
the book, request with fire in your
words the Holy keys, use them to
make the callous world tremble and
kiss for her sake the wicked dark
good-bye.
