Mexican Torch Songstress
Spanish chanteuse sings in tongues A Pentecostal vixen Voice rising like a votive candle flame Burning strong and wild With Amor on tap Pouring like tequila From love’s smoky barroom To resurrect the Easter lily Of eternal rebirth Like Zarathustra on peyote But smooth as a pink cotton Candied dream That never dies Even in the icy grip Of Boreal winds When Daffodils sleep But her Mexicali Bud still flowers On Dia de los Muertos When cemeteries bear marigolds And her heart is a petal On a wide heavenly sea Upon whose waves she greets the sun
