At the End of a Dirt Road in San Raphael, Guatemala

by o on March 29, 2006

The preacher shrieks.
His congregation howls
moans and weeps.
A cock calls the sundown.

Tajamulco’s fire sleeps
covered in clouds.
Miles away in a field
huge black rocks remain still.

They fall into pits of song
then move chairs around.
How many ways are there
to say thank-you for this life?
