Vanessa Winship - She Dances on Jackson

Javier Zamora - Thoughts on the Anniversary of My Crossing the Sonoran Desert

                  June 10, 1999

looking out the window
watching for Statue
of Liberty Golden

another story: once, a boy
loved summer & so moved
to the sun

same story: once, a boy
ran from winter but could
not shake the dead trees

same story: once, a boy

same story: my mother cries
whenever she sees a tree

Boy 1: We made love.
Boy 2: I was experimentin...
