Rebecca Seiferle Aztec Ruins Standing here at the beginning of the ruins, we inhabit a sky full of cries too numerous and varied to be identified. And what would we call them? The bird that cries like a man.... the bird that buzzes with the locust pinched in the thumbs of a branch, the bird with the voice of a broken whistle, one last breath....just before it breaks, the bird whose periodic cry is a bright thread through the bullrushes.... These warbles, clicks, cries of surprise throng us with a language we do not understand our own voice, the lost voice of our fathers meeting our mothers so long ago, the voice of whatever calls us into being... top Great Circle As he aged into impassive calm, strangers thought my father was a Navajo, but, as a child, I knew he was a buffalo.

Rebecca Seiferle "To raise the ghost of Eliot once more, Seiferle has what he described as characteristic of the Renaissance but missing in the poetry of the modern age: 'unified sensibility.' Hers is a world where everything matters; she writes about dismemberment out of a sense of wholeness betrayed, of connectedness outraged. One expression of that wholeness is her capaciousness of imagination, the vast historical and geological scope of its landscapes of concern... " Prairie Schooner.

1992 Finalist PenWest Translation Award by César Vallejo, translated by Rebecca Seiferle XXXIV Finished the stranger, with whom, late at night, you returned to words for words. Now there won't be anyone who waits for me, readies my place, good itself ill. Finished the heated afternoon; your great bay and your clamor; the chat with your exhausted mother who offered us a tea full of evening. Finally finished everything: the vacations, your obedience of hearts, your way of demanding that I not go out. And finished the diminutive, on behalf of my majority in the endless ache and our having been born like this for no cause. "The book was born in a complete void. I am responsible for it. I assume all responsibilites for its esthetics. Today, more than ever, I feel a sacred obligation, until now unknown, weighing upon me; that of being free! If I am not free today, I will never be. I feel the arch of my forehead desiring its heroic imperative strength . . . God knows what horrifying borders I have approached, filled with fear, terrified that everything was going to die completely so that my poor soul would live . . . I want to be free . . . But being free, at times, I feel surrounded by a dreadful ridicule with the air of a child that carries a spoon in his nostrils . . ." — César Vallejo César Vallejo was born in 1892 in Santiago de Chuco, a small village of the Peruvian

That beast with its puzzled stare, bred back from the edge of extinction, ruminating among the repetitive flowers, his shoulders beginning to slump from emphysema, like, and unlike, a calf's emerging hump.

Cracking the book's spine as he flattened the pages, my father drew a grid over the Indian and the buffalo, then enlarged each section onto whitewashed masonite.

The Drunken Boat ISSN: 1530-7646 Winter 2003 Vol.3, Issue IV Poem to Commander Zhang at the Meeting of the Bian and Si Rivers Two rivers meet at this corner of the city where a one-thousand-step polo field is smooth as if planed. A low wall stretches around three sides, drums clatter when red flags are raised. Before sunrise on a chill early autumn morning, why are you all dressed up like this? It's been agreed, teams will be chosen and made to fight for the win. A hundred horses draw in their hooves while brushing by each other. The ball surprises and players gather and disperse with excited sticks. There are red pommels made of dyed ox hair and gold bridles. A player turns aside and reaches over close to the horse belly, a thunder rolls from his hand and the magic ball runs. Players retreat and relax on both sides, but suddenly things shift and they fight again. The serve is hard, but the receiver is more skillful, such rude strength! Cheers cascade from the surrounding crowd as strong men shout. This is of course for military training not for fun

The City of Brotherly Love Is Neither At the museum, when I turn the corner, I'm cornered by a painting by Goya. A blind man pries open the mouth of a boy to grasp the scent of the bite of sausage which the boy has just gulped down, singeing his fingers on the sweet link that was being one hand around his throat, the other with two fingers chinked, grapple hooks but near death, eyes rolling back in his skull, while the man's face, suffused with longing, is just inches away, feasting on his breath. So poverty has its blind expressions and, crying from hunger, its notes, distinct as Caruso's or Pavarotti's: out of all the cries of the honeyless self, the drone of the empty gut. So when I turn the corner at the Food Warehouse, I'm cornered by the whine of a three-year-old passing the lunch meat. Even his father, his scarecrow father who bends to him with the voice of the wind in an empty field, who asks if he wants to carry the little red basket which holds two or three things, seems to think he's crying as children do, with unhappiness or irritation.

Rebecca Seiferle reading September 18, 2002 On a Winter’s Night At dawn, as Jesus was returning to the city, he felt hungry.  Seeing a fig tree by the roadside he went over to it, but found nothing there except leaves.  He said to it, “never again shall you produce fruit!”; and it withered up instantly.            Matthew 21, 18-19 It’s the cursed fig tree, backlit, a bitter halo in the distant lights, though I don’t know how it came here, transplanted, still out of season, surviving amputee of God’s will. The man who climbed into a fig tree to glimpse Christ in the crowd was blessed, but the barren tree was blasted, lopped-off by a word from Christ, to forever metaphor all fruitless souls. A trope of useless love, it grips now a clay hill in this Southwestern desert, and what I see is how it thrives, as love does, stubborn beyond the pointing finger, beyond the uttered curse. For while its limbs are but stubs, it’s dense with life, so many new sprouts sporting out of its trunk and roots, it rises within the thicket

Issue #11, September, 1999 : Return Previous Next Rebecca Seiferle The Sacrifice Tree Field School After the earthquake, you see a Biblical swarm of locusts. You are bit sixty four times on both legs by invisible flies that swarm in the sand. The water of the Carribean is always lukewarm and smells of kerosene. The bed in the hotel, every night, is cold and damp, as it fills with tears of the tropical storm leaking through the roof. It is difficult to eat at first, the air is so full of strange flavors, the smell of rotten fruit and the garlic and onion scent of a particular tree. The tunnels beneath the hieroglyphic stairway cave in, the statue of 18 rabbit loses the glyph of his name. When you come back from the beach, the plaza is riddled with bullets. There are blood-stains on the walls and sidewalks. A man from La Entrada was targeted by four assassins, but, in this country, an assassin is anyone who is given an AK47 and a few lempira a day. The "target" escaped into the church, but four townspeople were killed as the gunmen sprayed his getaway.
