Twilight

Victor the taxi driver says

I love this time of day

This is when I say

Never want to die

want to be here forever

Oh maybe it will be possible,

in the shaggy heads of trees

that barely felt us

walking beneath them

The corners we turned so often

broken pavements

cracks & signatures

Daniel Lozano 1962

All the days we entered thoughtlessly

forgetting to turn our heads or bow

to the vine finally making it over the fence

dangling blossom

orange cup of joy

ephemeral as we were

here

imagining our deep roots
