On the cover:
PREMONITION

The owl sings.
a plaintive overture
to interruption.

The burden of the scorching sun
gives way.

In the blossoms
of an ancient cactus
pure light
sketches the entrails
of history.

Its frail purple hand
trembles on the verge
of fortune:

On the thin leaf
of memory
the green lash
of time paints
cherries in tender
water.

From indian chalices
emerge premonitions
of absent blood.

-Lucha Corpi, translated by Catherine Rodriguez-Nieto
