Riker Island Schedule

Treasures: Cemetery

This is an unpublished poem written by Maily Sequera, you can read more of her Everything is Violeta .
I first heard in the Second Reading Festival Chacao 2010. Cemetery




saw a dead man and a woman of translucent gown
poking his head and his underwear


then got fat at the window

naturalized death and dug a grave with two flashes good

were only ten seconds

between dark red dark blue police saw the head
blood and disaster shattered the glass

if it was a taxi driver 20 or 60, you'll see
the weapon fired, and know
if a wife and children, will
and then killed him and fled, then, no one knows

other passes and stares
almost flip a coin to the show and will continue
issue with the Sunday soup
family life goes
with true terror
but there the
and thank you, sir

oneself, God forbid that I
hours
bad mother crying on TV

holding a child while Aunt tells immutable
sparingly they killed him

another
shot by a bicycle

shoes fortnight dim



normal so the new rules

who told him to be alive who sends me
