Our Children
I see, closing my eyes, I see
Stars as big as terrestrial moons
Hanging above the rafts carrying our children.
The sea, bitter darkness, pitches iridescent with infant light,
It is glacial, it is vertical, it is shifting,
Perhaps it is hopeless.
Above the rafts, spindrift unfurls strange flags that wind, night, and stars rip apart with a quiet sovereign fury,
And our children are calm, armed with ignorance, armed with wisdom.
They see in the palms of their hands warm crystals sprung from the deep,
They hold in their hands the miracle of seeds.
A great school of patient sharks follows the rafts,
The watery eyes of sharks contemplate our children.
Mex[ico City], Sept[ember] [19]43.
