A drawing inspired by this poem, by Angela Salazar
Moony
Me haces sentir que estoy en la luna:
you asked me to distill this
feeling for you:
it hums like a kiss
por dentro de mi muñeca,
it flutters soft yellow wings
debajo de mi ombligo,
El hala mis camanances
out of hiding till they ache with shining.
De pronto, mi lengua es un
extraño en mi boca:
todas las palabras de cariño
de mi corazón son en español.
Con tú amor meticuloso,
me has despertado la soñadora en mi alma.
