looking down on and over me
I can taste the blood
of the epic battles they fought
I can hear them

with no ideal to die for
with no love to look forward.
I used to be the grandchild
of brave and heroic people
I am only
the lovechild of
war and greed.

Age has never crossed my face once.

» Teacup of Yellow: Pavane pour une infante défunte
In the procession we stood, behind the dress pants and pastel blazers - teacher clothes - and glass-beaded necklaces, waiting our turn on the Friday afternoon. And then, when no one else preceded us, we had arrived. Right at the spot where she lay. And immediately my eyes were fixed on it. The…
