  13. We were turning that too heavy earth too long,
    Too long and at the wrong time –
    Days of rain had made a world of clay that clung

    To our spades, gripped like misery…

    —Wayne Price, “Allotment”
    from The Flight of the Turtle: New Writing Scotland 29 (ASL, 2011)

  20. TO BAM. To impose on any one by a falsity; also to jeer or make fun of any one.

  24. Durango, México. Un niño de 15 años juega al fútbol.
    Una luz se abre.

  27. Dos perros viejos se miran a los ojos.
    Seis inviernos sin verse.
    Una estrella de latón.
    Un pasado de pólvora y sangre.
    Y tres tiros limpios que aún huelen en el aire.

  30. La cuarentena no terminó.
    Ahora las calles las recorren ellos: los caminantes desquiciados.
    Lentos, cabizbajos, tristes… hasta que te huelen.
    Entonces corren. Y solo quieren carne humana.

  33. Katska llega a Lorkof sin uniforme, sin nombre… solo un número blanco.
    Cientos de prisioneros, duelos, canciones rotas y un silencio que no existe.
    La cárcel imperial no necesita muros para destruirte.
