Poem for Hrafnhildur You were the warrior crow woman and we were drinking Gunpowder tea in Dali’s overblown town of Figueres and I was thinking you were just about as purely open to the world as any of these bloody tourists on their dream trip to the old fascist’s favorite self-constructed temple/museum, complete with jewelry store where you could buy huge hunks of gold to rest precariously on your finger But that was not us We were there to see where all the noise came from for the longest of lifetimes or until the Subaru commercials at least and to wonder how we, the artist warrior crow Woman of the Icelandic Vikings and the poor Irish poet boy would survive the silent, and sometimes blind art worshippers of the 21st century. |
