Dedicated to: Saúl de la Carmen Sotelo,
Madeline Sotelo, and Isabel Omara Sotelo
The swan in my dream
and the horse in my garden.
The snake in the pond
and the rain in my head.
Oh, what a sweet child I was!
Paper airplane in my hand
and the air in my pores.
Moving through invisible spaces
on a spinning wheel of white light.
Oh, what a sweet child I was!
