This is your foreign correspondent,
Aristotle, for The Poetics,
reporting live from the Mediterranean
where the skulls and bones of a few Egyptians
crown the tradeships of His Majesty,
wave back and forth:

Hernando Cortez,
oversees operations at the Aztec/

where to the left of a stone no longer rising from water
a dove collects
its nest egg
upon the skeleton of a hummingbird.
