Father, What to Do About Our Dead Mother?

Antònia Vicens Picornell

"Mother’s already sprouting in the pot."

If we tossed mother’s teeth

around the orange tree

they’d take

root

carve their way

And so

we could bore ourselves down

to the earth’s core

since

among the molten rocks

surely

there’s her voice

still living

Do not cry.
