THE MESQUITES KEEP YOUR SECRETS, BUT THE SAGUAROS KNOW YOUR SINS Elena Acuna The desert is unforgiving Abuelita leaves out clay bowls to collect rainwater Lets the javelinas and the coyotes drink it all up Watches the sky paint the red clay dark I try to tell her that she has done her part She can rest now “The desert is unforgiving,” she tells me “Los mezquites guardan tus secretos pero los saguaros conocen tus pecados, Mija.” I want to tell her what I’ve done Ask her if she thinks the prickly pears will still bloom for me in the springtime Welcome me with open palms How many secrets will those mesquites really keep When you are caught beneath the moon Does she tell the coyotes will I hear it in their howls The desert is unforgiving I want to ask her if she thinks it will find a woman worth forgiving in me. 162
