La Anunciación
First I put on the horse. Then
I put on the legs, the two
bare feet. Next, I put on
The earth. And I walked
for you. I walked you
to Granada. After that
To Bethlehem. First I
followed the star. O!, I thought.
I turned at the light. I found
The gray bus from Osingo. I
took it into Chilón—to Lipan's
Abarrotes. Calle Limones,
Number twenty-two. Two men
were standing outside, smoking
cigarettes. I took off my hat. They
Disappeared. Lipan
was at the counter. Lipan, I
said, I need a broom. The horse
Forgot its tail. I see, he said
I have one cheap. Now
We could ride to December.
