Chauchilla Cemetery<br />

Violet Dahl<br />

Chauchilla conjures<br />

bone-chillers<br />

skeletons draped<br />

in whispering strips<br />

of papyrus skin<br />

they sing only of<br />

the East’s aridity<br />

and Peruvian coffee<br />

blacker than<br />

eye sockets<br />

the Poroma riverbed<br />

mourns their<br />

sojourn – detour<br />

number four off<br />

the Panamerican Highway<br />

Nazca to Cahuachi<br />

if you please<br />

if you believe<br />

in etching geoglyphs<br />

with God’s toes.
