Adobo Criollo Sergio Antonio Ortiz Rivera

these luminous bones this open heart these mild winds full of bent faces... cutoffs of things I want to love

cobíjalo, trasplántale mi cabellera escarchada que los sollozos  del amor humedecen las palabras 

shelter him, implant my frost-covered hair, tell him the sighs of love moisten the words worth living for

you’re so handsome I write to the night (word for word) to look for whoever is looking for me, shadow texts
