Cold Fire
– for Iram Hernandez
Once again, we find
ourselves under the
anarchy of starlight
while our dreams get
caught in the tangled
dance of branches.
Drinking glasses filled
to the rim with
Bacardi & Diet Coke.
A drink to calm the
nerves, to straighten
out our crooked smiles.
You mentioned Jesus
hanging like a red lantern
in the window
