GATOS DE EDUARDO GALEANO

Fleas dream big dog dreams
follicle forests and the thick
dimension of scruffaluftwaffe

Ricardo, the lifeguard
es un salvaje de light eyes
a flea on a parasol tower

Los perros dream flea jelly dreams
pummeling fleas into compote of fist
at whatever is in front of white
layer of sponge skin cake

Cats, in contrast, don't eat
diamond pineapple chunks unless
they're on a white spork telescope
