Honorable Mention
Panama Canal, 2003
julius (Michael Sottak)

Rosita brought me sugar cane
and mangoes, taught me:
"buenos dias, noches,
por favor..."

four to forty four
like i might remember

how Fort Rodman smelled
under diesel throttle
and misquito spray
in 1959

the steam of jungle
the locks at Gatun
the shock of thunder
every afternoon

my father laughing
my mother dancing
my sister spinning

like an elf

past Miraflores locks
Balboa just the name
of a place Dad landed
a six foot marlin
