The Poet’s Corner Cristina del Canto Blanton Cristina del Canto Blanton is an award-winning poet and author based in New Orleans. Her work, in both English and Spanish, has been featured in literary journals across the globe, including a 1st place Mariner Poetry Award for her poem “Caracas.” Originally from Venezuela, Cristina studied creative writing at New York University and is working on her first novel, scheduled for publication in 2024. Her published work is available at www.wordsbycristina.com Caracas I am bound to her by blood, this madwoman of a city with eyes that see, a comatose heart, with no feeling. One, two, three hundred, a thousand — we are all carbon copies of her silicone breasts, collagen cheeks teeth bleached whiter than the pearls we adorn ourselves with. I was a child when I left this madwoman, mother of my younger years. I left her drinking cuba libres, stirring ice with her finger, her nails crimson red. I said, “Goodbye, I am leaving you.” She turned her face back to the barrio and said, “Adios, Muchacha.” Years later, I look back on my youth. I remember her as the mother I lost, the sister I never had, the woman I was afraid to become. If only she knew how easy she was to leave, how difficult she was to forget.
