San Miguel de Allende
















Fountain, San Miguel

by Jack


You cannot know her
Enjoy our photographs
Were they Walker Evans
Avedon Ansel Adams
Paintings of Okeeffe Frida Kahlo
Marion Perlet
Who loves her
You cannot know San Miguel

Nor I who have walked her
Streets
Knowing her no better than
a woman I have fucked
Three times
Heard her history felt kisses
Embraces
The abundance of being inside her

San Miguel de Allende
Unattainable mystery still
Breath stirring my blood
Heart
Cock's crow to Scorpio

Gorgeous photography.

And perhaps you would know San Miguel better if you bought her dinner or took her to a movie first!

Touché.

Actually, I'm not sure why I felt that. I've been there three times but always felt the visitor-- the foreigner. Maybe if I spoke her language...
