Juan Felipe Herrera

Radiante, 1967, by Olga Albizu


Radiante (S)

Jestered ochre yellow my umber Rothko

divisions my Brooklyns with Jerry Stern
black then oranged gold leaf & tiny skulls
perforations Dada sugar bread of Oaxacan
ecstasy Lorca’s green horse the daffodil head
corruptions of the State in tenor exhalation
saxophonics blossomings rouged monkey
DalĂ­ roll down the keys the high G’s
underStreets of the undeRealms my hair.
Throttle up into hyper-city correlations =
compassion compassion
