The Spaniards
L. S. Klatt
 
 
Absent-minded & unapproachable, I walk 
 in the tilled field. I am not, in fact, here; 
 I am only anticipating the Catalan farm 
 & a lane of carob trees. A butterfly wing 
 produces a shock, as does a sardine1 tin 
 & the unattainable sea that is at eye-level. 
 I listen for the dialogue of insects 
 & the whimper of a rabbit that is held 
 by the ears by a peasant woman. She is nude 
 except for her cyclopean hips2, which are true 
 & false the way the bone of the moon is not yet 
 blue, not yet superlative. What makes the scene 
 real is the mule-drawn cart that disappears 
 in a cloud of dust, just as turpentine 
 erases forkfuls of sunshine from my mouth.
