Cow-Kisses, Confessions, Calamine by Catherine Hartzel Doctor-Magistrate of Hygienic Truth You, Sir, of latex fingers cool and clean, like God's touch, Find your fallen Magdalene, branded with a crimson rash, Poison oak or sumac, a snack for a pastured cow- Yet I will not repent, have no regrets, Though your pen scrapes a page of "Remarks on the Patient," Your countenance as tautly solemn As it was last Tuesday, when I cradled a toad to my cheek Contracting dermatitis from his whorled gray skin; How his pea-sized heart staccatoed, as if he were on interview, And his face! Imagine a planet peopled with such as him.... Of course I let him go!   Doctor, do you recall wex photographic the glorious newt I all too briefly knew? A fire streak in the rock-bottom mud, a lean, wife look- He could have been a twin to you! I merely stared, close-up And amazed, while he squirmed in my hand, and no corollary Can be proven, as you noted yourself, Between that princely newt and the salmonella That rendered me limp for a month or two....   wex photographic Will I be branded outlaw, wex photographic then, a groveller in the pew... For what seemed the natural, wex photographic even godly thing to do: Kissing that cow's naked pink muzzle Grasping her bony huge Head of rough wine-dappled velvet, Peering into one truculent eye Made French by its fanciful lashes, Yes, and swooning, caressing that head Of the hot leafy breath, the attendant fly or two- Loving all of surly, swish-tailed Nature as I do...? Baskile ak Raj by Patrick Sylvain Lannuit retounen nan kontan 1 pandan iou kòmanse talonnen lè ak yon rigol sye k'ap glise sou do Lawomann. Manchèt man men yo baskile rapid e pla tè pou yo koupe kochma. Suk ak wonm. Anpil lanne mak pla pye labou plate sou do yo pandan yo koube pou yo baskile kont lò siwo blan. TRANSLATION:   Swinging with Rage   The night returns to its quarters as the day begins to clock its hours with glistening sweat on the backs of cane cutters. Machetes in hand they swing fast and low cutting their nightmares. Sugar and rum. Years of muddy footprints mark their backs as they arch to swing against sweet white gold.
