DANIEL
Islands belong to the sea,
not the earth.
All around me
the world is blue.
Above, more blue,
like a hot, melting star.
Music is the only part
of Cuba’s heated air
that feels like something
I can breathe.
DANIEL
I feel like a King Midas of living things
instead of gold.
Everything I touch
turns into something that grows.
This morning, I heard
a trapped insect chirping
inside the wood of a table—
it must have hatched after
the tree was chopped down.
Last night, I tried to read Spanish stories
in a book marked by worm-eaten pages
and parallel grooves left by rats’ teeth.
