Mexican Cantina


(Herman Sillas - 'Guitar Player')

His eyebrows lift
wing tipped
as if they wish to
take flight

he plucks instead
worn strings
fingers nimble
ends
to fossilized arms

she touches her brow
he smooths his

don’t….don’t…
I want to say
let them fly
free from here - far from here
to the places you dance
with untamed thoughts
.
