Juana García Abás

Hieros Gamos

The rite of the lost land
divides the night into three vigils.
The promised trees crow
to the midnight cocks,
and until the arrival of dawn
there is a time of grace
for the opposites to exile the Exile.
It is the appropriate time to taste the dust.
A strong wind carries the ash.
