come on now
Ritos órficos | Orphic Rites
Solo en inglés — Only in English
once more, inside, under weak white light,
imbued with bay tree vapor,
there's your mother
and though you've been long absent,
around her talking still goes beyond questions
how silently aloud you happen to roar inward,
she listens;
older than you wish
and older every time
come on now,
go outside with your mother,
stand behind her,
watch her watching the full moon
put a hand on her shoulder
hold on to that image
