Honorable Mention
Building
Caballo Oscuro

This starts from dreams, not rock and stone
disturbed from their rest.
I build, displace the past and my spirit is architect.
Here is the red earth of my soul, scattered with chalkdust that
becomes the straight furrows of things thrown to the land
to grow and become beautiful.
I am a farmer, planning my field with a harmony called from
the fire under my feet.
I am a hunter, seeking the choicest pieces for a joyous jigsaw.
On this wall, the sun will rise, on this, the moon will make blue
of white.
Cool and warm, here a bedroom, with a window full of stars,
here a room of morning light, a table set for the sun.
Stones scuff my skin white, I bleed for perfection and everything
is so slowly done today.
The ocean is a whisper, the land rolls down and I dream of
ripe fruit and flowers to fill my lover’s arms.
